IU basketball player Devonte Green was on track to play in the NCAA tournament.

"I’ve set a goal before this season started and worked so hard to achieve that goal," a social media post read in part. "The moment I reach the promise land my college career was put to an end. I’m sick...but just like everything else I’ve dealt with, all I can do is move forward."

IU freshman Trayce Jackson-Davis said he feels for Green and De'Ron Davis.

Hoosiers coach Archie Miller thanked Green and Davis.

The IUPUI women's team earned its first-ever berth in the NCAA tournament, but won't get a chance to compete. Coach Austin Parkinson noted his "heart aches for our ladies," especially senior leader Holly Hoopingarner.

Purdue coach Matt Painter thanked seniors Evan Boudreaux, Jahaad Proctor and Tommy Luce.

This is from Boudreaux, who was set to play Thursday in the Big Ten tournament.
