The Indiana Hoosiers have hired Darian DeVries as their new head coach of the men’s basketball program. The news was first reported Tuesday afternoon and then confirmed by Indiana shortly after.

DeVries, who spent the past season at West Virginia, is a grinder. He has won 71% of the games he has coached in, taking Drake to three of the last four NCAA Tournaments before spending just one year at West Virginia, where he exceeded expectations.

The Mountaineers finished 19-13 overall and 10-10 in Big 12 play this past season under DeVries.

DeVries was a long-time Creighton assistant before landing his first head coaching job with Drake.  He spent just one year at West Virginia.  His Drake and West Virginia teams went a combined 169-68 (71.3%) overall and 89-43 (67.4%) in conference play, and won three conference championships (one regular season, two postseason) along the way.

Devries, an Aplington, Iowa native, was rumored to be considered for the open at Iowa job.
