2012 First-team All-Big Ten reliever Jonny Hoffman has been removed from the IU roster due to an unspecified violation of team rules. Hoffman led the Hoosiers with a 2.27 ERA as he went 8-2 with five saves.

But he's why Hoffman's departure may not impact IU as much as one's gut may say as they seek to end a 64-year conference championship drought. Collegiate Baseball has them B1G favorites (though w/ Hoffman).

Hoosiers without Hoffman.
