'Can't wait for what's next!' Indiana basketball player denied 5th year of eligibility by NCAA
BLOOMINGTON — Senior wing/forward Luke Goode's appeal for a fifth and final year of college eligibility with Indiana basketball was denied, and Goode has elected to call time on his college career. Goode confirmed both the denial and his future intentions to IndyStar on Tuesday afternoon, after signaling as much in a social media post the same day. 'Four years later,' Goode wrote in an Instagram post. 'Thank you God for the journey through the highs and lows. Can't wait for what's next! Isaiah 41:10.' Goode's appeal outcome — and subsequent decision not to take his process beyond the NCAA itself — settles one of IU's final remaining roster questions ahead of Darian DeVries' first season in Bloomington. Goode intended to argue that his sophomore season at Illinois, during which he appeared in 10 games, should qualify him for a fifth year, although it did not fit every qualification of the association's medical redshirt process. A distended backlog of appeals nationally delayed a decision, as the NCAA was slowed by the shifting landscape of college sports and struggled to address individual athletes' cases in a timely manner. When a decision finally arrived in Goode's case, he elected to accept the outcome and move forward. He finishes a college career split between three years at Illinois and one at IU having appeared in 108 games, averaging 5.6 points per, and shooting 39% from behind the 3-point line. The Fort Wayne native's one year in Bloomington saw him set personal bests for points (9.1) and field goal attempts (6.7) per game, as Goode started 16 of the 32 games in which he appeared. With Goode's case now decided, DeVries and his staff gain further clarity on the final makeup of their roster for 2025-26. The signing of Serbian guard Aleksa Ristic seemed to passively signal the end of Anthony Leal's Indiana career — Leal had also explored a waiver granting him one more year — while the decision in Goode's case leaves DeVries with one more scholarship ahead of next season. Ristic highlights, stats: Indiana basketball recruit stars for Serbia in EuroBasket Under-20 group play That is, of course, should he wish to use it. This deep into the summer, it is often difficult to find Big Ten-quality players either at the prep level or in the portal. DeVries can bank the scholarship for next year if he so chooses, hand it out on a one-year basis to members of his roster not currently on scholarship or, perhaps, sign a high school player with the intention of redshirting them immediately. Indiana took that approach in Archie Miller's first season, when Miller convinced Race Thompson to reclassify and join the Hoosiers immediately on the promise he would get a year to develop and catch up to his teammates while redshirting. IU projects to have 12 players on scholarship for the coming academic year.
