- New Indiana coach Mike Woodson is bringing a distinctly Hoosiers flavour to his new staff after hiring former star Dane Fife as associate head coach Monday. Fife spent the last 10 seasons working on Tom Izzo’s staff at Michigan State, the final three as associate head coach. But Fife played on Bob Knight’s final team and helped lead Indiana to the 2002 national championship game, the Hoosiers’ most recent Final Four appearance. After graduating, he served two seasons as an administrative assistant for then Hoosiers coach Mike Davis. Fife went 82-97 in six seasons at IPFW, which is now known as Purdue University Fort Wayne.
