Indiana to honor late coach Terry Hoeppner, Insight Bowl team on Saturday
Published:
Indiana will be honoring late head coach Terry Hoeppner and the Hoosiers’ 2007 Insight Bowl team during this Saturday’s game against Georgia Southern.
The Hoosiers have special “Hep’s Rock” uniforms on Saturday, honoring the former head coach who passed away prior to the 2007 season due to complications with cancer. That year, Indiana finished the regular 7-5 and reached a bowl game, fulfilling Hoeppner’s goal to “Play 13.”
