Indiana basketball: Six takeaways from dominant win in Indianapolis

#5. Jordan Geronimo‘s activity on both sides of the ball will prove to be huge for Indiana basketball

In 20 minutes off the bench, Geronimo tallied six points, four rebounds, four made free throws, two steals, and five (!!) blocks. Now, three of those five blocks came in the last two minutes of the game and Geronimo was not letting the Redhawks get to 60 points.

As Stephen Bardo was announcing this game, he mentioned how Geronimo can really bring the energy and do the little things for the Hoosiers that would make a big impact in a game, which he hadn’t been doing in past games.

Against Xavier, Geronimo totaled just five minutes, with most of his minutes going to Miller Kopp and Malik Reneau. If Geronimo can continue to stay active on offense and defense, it will turn out to be huge for the Hoosiers when it matters most in conference play.
