Darian DeVries hasn’t “come back” yet because he was just hired as Indiana’s head coach on March 18, 2025, and the 2025‑26 season hasn’t kicked off yet. He’s officially underway—assembling his staff, rebuilding the roster via the transfer portal, and prepping for the season—but hasn’t coached a game at IU yet .
Here’s where things stand:
✅ March 18, 2025 – DeVries was officially named the 31st head coach of Indiana men’s basketball .
🛠️ Over the summer (June 2025), he’s been busy hiring his support staff and aggressively rebuilding the roster through the transfer portal .
🏀 First game isn’t until the 2025‑26 season opener—likely beginning with non-conference play in November/December 2025, including a confirmed matchup with Siena on December 22, 2025 .
So, when the user says “he’s not even come back,” the answer is: there’s nothing missing—he’s just newly on board and actively building the program. His “return” to game-day action will come when the season starts.
If you’re wondering about practice schedules, exhibition games, or a more precise season opening date as it gets released, I can follow up with that. Anything else you’d like to track?
