Top Indiana Recruit Will Likely Play Elsewhere: Indiana’s uncertain coaching situation has hit the Hoosiers hard as top basketball signee Devin Ebanks was granted a release from his letter of intent last week to explore other options that will allow him to “have a great relationship” with his coach. Ebanks is ranked No. 13 in the country by Scout.com and was the Hoosiers’ top incoming recruit. The 6-8 didn’t rule out Indiana, but it’s likely he’ll end up at Texas, Memphis, Rutgers or West Virginia. Hoosiers former coach Kelvin Sampson resigned last month, and the school hasn’t found a replacement yet.
Ebanks said he will schedule visits with the four interested schools in the next month.
