The IU secondary added a veteran piece late in the offseason as coach Tom Allen announced former Ole Miss safety Jon Haynes joined the program on Thursday.
Haynes, a 5-11, 205-pound safety comes to Bloomington as a graduate transfer after playing two seasons at Ole Miss. Haynes was a three-star recruit out of Jones College in Ellisville, Miss.
The senior is using his extra year of eligibility granted by the NCAA because of the COVID-19 pandemic to join the Hoosiers.
