Welcome to the next episode of In Touch with Indiana Sports hosted by John Alden and powered by HoosierIllustrated.com. Alec Lasley joins the show once again to share his thoughts on Indiana basketball’s first exhibition from over the weekend, as well as what to expect this Saturday as Indiana football travels to Michigan State. Alec and John discuss the possibility of Kurtis Rourke’s return, the chance of this Indiana team trailing for the first time, the most important pieces for Mike Woodson’s squad, and more.

Host John Alden talks about how things couldn’t be better at this current point in time for the major sports programs at Indiana. He also shares his thoughts on what’s been going on with the Colts and Anthony Richardson, the Indiana men’s soccer team securing another Big Ten regular season title, and more.
