Indiana head coach Curt Cignetti met with the media for the first time since Indiana’s 23-16 overtime win over Minnesota on Monday. The topic of the day was the status of Josh Hoover and whether or not he or Grant Wilson will be able to go when the Hoosiers face USC on Saturday.
“We’ll see how the week plays out and we’ll see who we trot out there,” Cignetti said of Hoover’s injury.
Wilson replaced Hoover at halftime of the win over Minnesota and led the team to a comeback win. Hoover has been rumored to be dealing with an injury that has severely impacted his play. Wilson completed 9-of-17 passes for 156 yards and a touchdown.
Hoover has started all nine of Indiana’s games. He has completed 124-of-206 passes for 1,860 yards with 19 touchdowns and two interceptions. Wilson has played sparingly in parts of six games. He has completed 13-of-22 passes for 230 yards and three touchdowns.
The first availability report will come out on Wednesday evening.
