This is one step of many that Archie has predicted needing to take in order to get the Hoosiers schedule beefed up. He told IndyStar's Zach Osterman that it has been a challenge early in his tenure.
“Getting a late start at it, it's taken some time for us to build it and with some of the things we need to have happen here in terms of games played in Assembly Hall and whatnot,” Miller said in early July. “But we're coming down home stretch here. Feel like we can get some things buttoned up in the next couple weeks."
This reported matchup against Arizona, a perennial power in the Pac-12, will help to fill holes remaining in Indiana's schedule.
