Tom Allen updates status of Indiana’s QB room following Connor Bazelak’s absence in Week 10
Published:
Tom Allen has a tough quarterback situation for Indiana following the 45-16 home loss to No. 15 Penn State in Week 10. Jack Tuttle was hurt during the game and needed to be replaced by sophomore Dexter Williams II and freshman Brendan Sorsby.
Allen reported after the game that starter Connor Bazelak is “dinged up” as he didn’t dress for the game against Penn State. The head coach of the Hoosiers did not elaborate on Bazelak’s injury or indicate when the QB might return.
Connor Bazelak is "dinged up" according to Tom Allen. Went to Tuttle until his injury. Says Dexter Williams "did some really good things," says he and Brendan Sorsby are in similar spots in terms of what they can do right now. #iufb
