Indiana coach Tom Allen was named the Big Ten Coach of the Year by both the league’s coaches and media.

Allen is the first Hoosiers coach to earn the honor since Bill Mallory won the award in 1986 and ‘87.

The Hoosiers concluded the regular season 6-1 and are ranked seventh in the nation in both the AP Top 25 and the Coaches Poll, their best ranking since 1967.

The Hoosiers wait to see what bowl they will play in after the rescheduled Old Oaken Bucket game was canceled due to COVID-19 cases at both Purdue and Indiana.
