Indiana's defensive line is adjusting after Stephen Daley and Kellan Wyatt lost their eligibility. The Hoosiers previously had a strong depth, bolstered by Daley and Wyatt, who made significant contributions in 2025. Tobi Osunsanmi and Chiddi Obiazor, both former players at Kansas State, are expected to step up under coach Buddha Williams. Behind them, Indiana retains several capable players, including Josh Burnham and Daniel Ndukwe. Despite the loss of Daley and Wyatt, the defense is positioned to be stronger in 2026 than in the previous year.
