Season one of the Darian DeVries era ended in the Big Ten tournament with a loss to Northwestern and the roster for the 2026-27 season has 10 players as of early Thursday morning.

The Hoosiers finished the 2025-26 season with an 18-14 record. IU was 9-11 in the Big Ten, was picked to finish 10th in the league and finished 10th. The program missed the NCAA tournament for a third consecutive season. IU’s last appearance in the NCAA tournament came in 2023 under Mike Woodson, ending with a second-round loss to Miami (FL).

The transfer portal opened Tuesday, April 7 and six of IU’s scholarship players from last season’s roster have entered. The Hoosiers have added six players via the transfer portal so far.

Inside the Hall is tracking all Big Ten transfer portal entries at this link and incoming players to the Big Ten from the portal at this link. Both lists are updated daily.

We are continuing to track IU basketball’s 2026-27 roster until it is complete. Here’s our latest version of the 2026-27 IU basketball roster tracker:

Out of eligibility and not returning

Six IU players from the 2025-26 season have completed their eligibility and will not return for the 2026-27 season.

Tucker DeVries, Lamar Wilkerson, Tayton Conerway, Conor Enright, Reed Bailey and Sam Alexis were six of IU’s top seven scorers from last season and will not be on IU’s roster next season.

Of note, a report surfaced on April 15 that Conerway has entered the transfer portal, but unless the NCAA grants him additional eligibility, his career is over.

Confirmed to return for the 2026-27 season

Trent Sisley, who averaged 4.2 points and 2.8 rebounds in 13.1 minutes per game in the 2025-26 season, will return to Bloomington for his sophomore season.

The Southern Indiana native is the only returnee for the 2026-27 season.
