Elijah Sarratt - Leads team in receiving in blowout Sarratt compiled six receptions (on seven targets) for 137 yards and one touchdown during Friday's 77-3 victory versus Western Illinois.
Impact Sarratt found the end zone on a 71-yard strike from quarterback Kurtis Rourke in the first quarter, extending Indiana's early lead. Following a quiet day in the team's season opener, the junior receiver led the Hoosiers in receptions and yards on the day, indicating that he can still have a productive role within the Indiana offense for the 2024 season. Sarratt's next opportunity will come against UCLA on Saturday.
SEPTEMBER 9 • ROTOWIRE
Omar Cooper Jr. - Big day in blowout Cooper caught all four targets for 131 yards and one touchdown during Friday's 77-3 win versus Western Illinois.
Impact Cooper's score came on a 69-yard pass from quarterback Tayven Jackson in the fourth quarter with the game well in hand. The redshirt sophomore receiver tied for second on the team in receptions on the day and converted 100 percent of his targets. Cooper will hope to build off his positive momentum against UCLA on Saturday.
SEPTEMBER 9 • ROTOWIRE
Andison Coby - Scores in blowout Coby gathered in his only target for 38 yards and one touchdown during Friday's 77-3 win versus Western Illinois.
Impact Coby made the most of his opportunity on Saturday, finding the end zone on a 38-yard strike to open up the scoring in the first quarter. The touchdown marked Coby's first reception of the season, as he failed to bring in his only target in the team's season opener against Florida International. The senior receiver will hope to earn a larger role within the offense throughout the season, starting on Saturday when the Hoosiers travel to face UCLA.
SEPTEMBER 9 • ROTOWIRE
Ty Son Lawton - Scores in blowout Lawton recorded six carries for 42 yards and one touchdown during Friday's 77-3 victory over Western Illinois.
Impact Lawton's touchdown came on a 19-yard run late in the first quarter, extending the big early lead for the Hoosiers. Despite the score, Lawton saw his opportunities dwindle in Indiana's second game after leading the team in attempts in the season opener, recording just six carries against Western Illinois and ceding the team lead in attempts to Justice Ellison on the day. A committee-style approach is clearly the favored approach by the Indiana coaching staff through two games, and Lawton will likely continue to see opportunities moving forward, starting against UCLA on Saturday.
SEPTEMBER 9 • ROTOWIRE
Elijah Green - Scores in victory Green logged five carries for 31 yards and one touchdown during Friday's 77-3 victory against Western Illinois.
Impact Green found the end zone on an 11-yard scamper in the second quarter, contributing to a massive first half lead the Hoosiers would not relinquish. Though Green has recorded just five rushing attempts in each of the team's first two games, his production indicates that he will likely continue to have a role within the apparent committee forming in the Indiana backfield moving forward. Green's next opportunity will come when the Hoosiers travel to the Rose Bowl to face UCLA in the team's conference opener.
SEPTEMBER 9 • ROTOWIRE
Justice Ellison - Scores twice in blowout Ellison notched nine rushes for 117 yards and two touchdowns during Friday's 77-3 victory over Western Illinois.
Impact The Hoosiers spread the love around on Saturday as five different backs received between five and nine carries, and Ellison made the most of his abbreviated opportunities. Averaging 13 YPC on the day, Ellison led the team in yards and attempts on his way to a productive day in a game that was never close. Through two games, Ellison has proven to be the most productive back in the Indiana backfield, though it appears a committee-style approach will likely continue moving forward. Ellison will look to separate himself from the pack starting against UCLA in Indiana's conference opener on Saturday.
SEPTEMBER 9 • ROTOWIRE
Kurtis Rourke - Efficient in blowout win Rourke was 15-for-17 passing for 268 yards and two touchdowns during Friday's 77-3 win versus Western Illinois. He also had three rushes for 13 yards with one touchdown.
Impact On a day in which the Hoosiers could do no wrong, Rourke put together a productive outing in the limited amount of times he was called upon. All three of the former Ohio transfer's touchdowns came in the first half, with Rourke slinging scoring throws of 38 and 71 yards, respectively, along with a rushing score from a yard out in the final minutes before halftime. Rourke saw limited snaps in the second half with the game well in hand. A trip to the Rose Bowl to face UCLA in Indiana's conference opener awaits on Saturday.

Brody Kosin - Missing Week 2 Kosin (undisclosed) is out for Friday's game against Western Illinois.

Kaelon Black - Not on Week 2 injury list Black (hamstring) is not on Indiana's injury list for Friday's game against Western Illinois, Mike Schumann of The Daily Hoosier reports.
Impact Black should be good to go for Indiana's second game of the season after suffering a hamstring injury in last week 31-7 win over FIU. His absence from the Hoosiers' injury list for Week 2 means he'll likely be active and see the field against the Leathernecks.
SEPTEMBER 6 • ROTOWIRE
Donaven McCulley - Out vs. Western Illinois McCulley (neck) won't play against Western Illinois on Friday night, Michael Niziolek of The Herald-Times reports.
Impact McCulley had to leave Indiana's 31-7 win against FIU after suffering a head or neck injury, and he'll now miss his first full game against the Leathernecks. The senior wide receiver logged one catch for nine yards before his Week 1 departure, and his next chance to see the field will be next Saturday at UCLA.
