With a total of six players from this past season deciding to test the transfer portal waters, Teri Moren and her staff are hard at work rebuilding Indiana's roster for next season. Players departing through the portal include Navaeh Caffey, Phoenix Stotijn, Faith Wiseman, Jade Ondineme, Chloe Spreen, and Edessa Noyan.
While Moren will likely dip into the portal to find new talent to bring to Bloomington, she and her staff continue to build IU's future recruiting classes.

The incoming 2026 class features a trio of 4-star prospects in small forward Gigi Battle, small forward Addison Nyemcheck, and point guard Ashlinn James. The class is currently ranked No. 8 in the country by 247Sports.
The 2027 class was without a commitment until Thursday when a top-30 prospect pledged her allegiance to the Hoosiers.

Playing for River Ridge High School, Parker averaged 19.6 points, 9.5 rebounds, 1.3 assists, and 1.2 blocks per game this past season during her junior year.
According to 247Sports Director of Scouting Andrew Ivins, Parker's game has evolved into one of skilled execution meeting physical size. Parker has great length and is an excellent rebounder, and can also stretch the floor by knocking down nearly 40% of her three-point attempts.
Parker has racked up offers from several other Power 4 programs, including Michigan, Purdue, BUY, Alabama, Georgia, and Georgia Tech. Her commitment to Indiana is a big win for Moren and company as they continue to be on the lookout for potential Hoosiers to join the 2027 class.
