Other Big Ten schools are reportedly showing interest in Indiana commit Harun Zrno

Even with the news of a new head coach in town, Indiana basketball needs to keep an eye on any recruits they have signed or have simply committed to the program while Mike Woodson was the head coach for the Hoosiers. A lot of times, recruits will choose a program because of the coaching staff, and more importantly a head coach, so when there is a chance of regime, commits can start to wander.

Even though Darian DeVries is a slam dunk hire for the Indiana Hoosiers, a commit may want to start looking elsewhere, or other schools may start showing interest in commits brought in by a previous head coach. That is exactly what is happening with Indiana right now.

Before he announced his retirement at the end of the season, Mike Woodson sealed the commitment of Bosnian prospect Harun Zrno, a highly sought-after shooting forward who stands 6-foot-7 and has a great vision of the court. This was a huge commitment for Woodson, one that some thought would buy him another year with the Hoosiers.

However, now Woodson is gone and Indiana has their new guy, but other schools are sniffing around the Indiana recruits including Miami, Penn State, Maryland, and Ohio State. Three other Big Ten schools are taking their chance to talk with Zrno and his agent has said he is planning visits to each one.

Indiana only has one other player coming in the Class of 2025 from the Woodson era, and that is Trent Sisley, who has already expressed his approval of new head coach DeVries. However, with Zrno choosing to listen to other schools, there is a real possibility he could de-commit and play somewhere else next season.

DeVries is certainly going to bring players of his own into the program, such as his son Tucker DeVries, who missed part of the Mountaineers season with a shoulder injury. However, keeping Zrno in the building should be something DeVries focuses on in his first few weeks with the Hoosiers.
