Mosquera-Perea headed to East Tennessee State

Former Indiana men's basketball player Hanner Mosquera-Perea is transferring to East Tennessee State.

Mark Adams, his AAU coach and legal guardian, confirmed the move in a text message to The Star. ESPN first reported Mosquera-Perea's decision.

A 6-9 forward with exceptional athleticism, Mosquera-Perea appeared in 75 games for Indiana. But injuries, suspensions and off-the-court problems followed him during his three seasons in Bloomington.

He was dismissed from the program earlier this offseason, after being involved in an incident during which fellow teammate Devin Davis was cited for marijuana possession. Davis was also dismissed from the program.

Mosquera-Perea's best season at IU was his last, when he averaged 6.5 points and 4.3 rebounds per game.

He joins fellow former Hoosier Peter Jurkin, who transferred to ETSU last summer.
