BLOOMINGTON, Ind. – To understand why Indiana football has emerged as a national power (see last year's 6-2 record and No. 12 final ranking), and why it seems poised for even more next season, consider defensive lineman Demarcus Elliott.
This former junior college standout rates among the Hoosiers best defensive players, which is saying something given the unit has a pair of All-Americans in linebacker Micah McFadden and cornerback Tiawan Mullen.
Specifically, Elliott comes out of the spring with safety Raheem Layne as IU's most improved players.
