The 2014-15 Indiana Hoosiers men's basketball team represented Indiana University in the 2014-15 NCAA Division I men's basketball season. Their head coach was Tom Crean, in his seventh season with the Hoosiers. The team played its home games at Assembly Hall in Bloomington, Indiana, and was a member of the Big Ten Conference. This season marked the 115th season of basketball at Indiana University.
The Hoosiers went 20-14 overall and 9-9 in the Big Ten Conference to finish in a tie for seventh place. Much of the Hoosiers' difficulties were caused by a lack of defense and post presence. The Hoosiers improved over last season, where they didn't appear in any postseason tournament, by being selected to play in the NCAA Tournament as a #10 seed in the Midwest region. They made an early exit as #7 Wichita State knocked them off in the second round.
