Rankings from AP Poll

The 2016–17 Indiana Hoosiers men's basketball team represents Indiana University in the 2016–17 NCAA Division I men's basketball season. Their head coach is Tom Crean, who is in his ninth season with the Hoosiers. The team plays its home games at Assembly Hall in Bloomington, Indiana, as a member of the Big Ten Conference.

Previous season

The 2015–16 Hoosiers finished the season 27-8 overall, and 15-3 in the Big Ten to win the Big Ten regular season title outright, pushing the school's total to 22 conference titles (tied with conference rival, Purdue, for the most). They received the #1 seed in the 2016 Big Ten Conference Men's Basketball Tournament, where they made an early Quarterfinals exit by losing to Michigan. As Big Ten Conference Champions, the Hoosiers received an at-large bid to the NCAA Tournament. Indiana went on to beat Chattanooga and Kentucky advancing to the Sweet 16 for the third time in five years; however, they fell to the North Carolina Tar Heels, 86-101.

Recruiting class

Indiana was able to land its top recruit in De'Ron Davis, when he announced his commitment to become a Hoosier on November 12, 2015. IU aggressively pursued Davis for more than 3 years, and they eventually beat out Mississippi State for the highly touted 6'9 forward from Aurora, Colorado. After leading Overland High School to two consecutive 5A state championship titles, Davis was crowned 2016 Colorado Mr. Basketball.[1]

On April 24, 2016, a fifth man was added to the recruiting class after JUCO transfer, Freddie McSwain, committed to play for IU. McSwain hails from Hinesville, Georgia and played basketball at Neosho County Community College.[2]
