Indiana University’s football program is deep into fall camp, using the session to fine‑tune a 2026 roster that already boasts depth at the majority of positions.
Offensive Line Adjustments
Carter Smith has been locked in at left tackle, giving the line a stable anchor, while Adedamola Ajani is slated to take over at right guard, stepping into the vacated role of Joe Brunner at right tackle.
Center and Guard Dynamics
Bray Lynch is handling the bulk of snaps at center, having taken about 90 percent of the reps, while Drew Evans is being tested at left guard, adding versatility to the interior line.
Wide Receiver Landscape
Nick Marsh and Charlie Becker have emerged as the top two wide receivers, with Davion Chandler and Tyler Morris next in line, while Shazz Preston and Jackson Wasserstrom are being evaluated as potential backups.
Preston, who brings notable talent, still needs to tighten his consistency and cut down on missed assignments if he hopes to become a reliable reserve.
Linebacker Depth and Competition
Isaiah Jones and Rolijah Hardy are confirmed as starters, while Turner and Utzinger are being considered for the third and fourth spots, adding depth to the unit.
Kellan Wyatt, Jacob Savage and Henry Ohlinger are also in the conversation for linebacker roles, though the position group remains fluid as the staff experiments.
Future Outlook
Overall, the breadth of talent across the roster suggests that Indiana’s coaching staff has a wealth of options, and the final two‑deep will likely reflect the most consistent performers as the camp progresses.
