Indiana’s Oumar Ballo was blunt in an answer reflecting on his lone season with the Hoosiers in 2024-25 following the Hoosiers 72-59 loss to Oregon in the Big Ten Tournament on Thursday.

“We come here every single day all we’re trying to do is win for these people,” Ballo said. “We lose one game, two games, the next thing you know your DMs crazy. Like death wishes, death threats, stuff like that. And I hope people, like, they change stuff like that cause this is not helping anybody.”

Ballo added more in a follow-up answer.

“At the end of the day we are human beings, we have feelings, you know,” Ballo said.
