BREAKING: Indiana Athletes Director Scott Dolson Appointed Calbert Cheany As a Succeeding Coach In Replacement For Woodson
Indiana University Athletic Director Scott Dolson has made a pivotal decision by appointing Calbert Cheaney as the new head coach of the Indiana Hoosiers men’s basketball team. Cheaney, a revered figure in Indiana basketball history, will succeed Mike Woodson, who has stepped down from the role. This marks a new chapter for the program, with high hopes that Cheaney’s leadership will propel the Hoosiers to greater heights.
Cheaney, a former Indiana standout, remains the all-time leading scorer in Big Ten history. During his collegiate career from 1989 to 1993, he amassed accolades, including the 1993 Naismith College Player of the Year and consensus All-American honors. His deep ties to the Hoosiers’ legacy and understanding of the program’s culture make him a natural fit for the head coaching position.
Since retiring from his NBA career, Cheaney has gained significant coaching experience. He served as an assistant coach with the Golden State Warriors and various college programs, including a stint as director of player development for Indiana under Mike Woodson. His blend of professional and collegiate experience positions him as an ideal candidate to guide the Hoosiers in their quest for a return to national prominence.
Scott Dolson praised Cheaney’s appointment, stating, “Calbert embodies the values and tradition of Indiana basketball. His dedication to the program, combined with his wealth of basketball knowledge, makes him the perfect choice to lead our team into the future.”
