There have been a lot of talented teams in Indiana basketball history, but we look at the top five in the past 20 years for the Hoosiers.

In the past twenty years, since Bob Knight left Bloomington, a lot has gone on with the Indiana basketball program.

Whether it be the multiple losing records, the recruiting violations, or the good that resulted in an NCAA Championship appearance and three Sweet 16’s, it’s been a roller coaster ride for the Hoosiers.

Now on their fifth coach since Knight, there have been struggles at times to find certain identities for the program.

Through all of that though, Indiana has still brought in many good players and had multiple talented teams.

Some teams exceed exceptions while others failed to reach them.

While some of the rosters had the ability to win a National Championship or make a Final Four run, they were unable to win at the right time.

Indiana has had a storied history with multiple talented teams and deep NCAA Tournament runs, but here are the top five best Indiana basketball teams over the course of the last 20 years.
