Part of the reason for Galloway’s struggles stems from the knee injury he suffered at the end of the 2023-24 season. He underwent offseason knee surgery and didn’t participate in summer workouts, which he noted after Indiana’s 82-69 win over USC on Jan. 8 led to what he implied was a lack of chemistry early in the season.

On the ensuing Maryland possession, Indiana had a foul to give but failed to use it and guard Rodney Rice nailed a three-pointer to give the Terps a 79-78 lead with seven seconds left. After a timeout, Indiana botched its final possession and the boos rained down.

Woodson and Indiana found themselves on the wrong side of a 94-69 blowout loss to No. 19 Illinois on Tuesday night. It marked their second straight 25-point loss, and was their second-worst loss in program history. Only a 32-point loss to Wisconsin in 2010 was worse.
