The 2025 national champion Indiana Hoosiers football team visited The White House on Monday, May 11, to commemorate the program's first championship.
The Hoosiers are coming off a perfect 16-0 season capped off with a 27-21 win over Miami in the CFP national title game — a game President Donald Trump attended.
“I watched that game. I watched these guys," Trump said Monday. "They can play, they can play. And they were a little underestimated, but I just said not anymore… they were incredibly talented.”
Too-early Top 25: Where does Indiana rank after spring football practice?
Heisman Trophy winner Fernando Mendoza was not in Washington D.C with the team as he's participating in Las Vegas Raiders rookie minicamp after being selected with the No. 1 overall pick in last month's NFL Draft.
“I’m on the bottom of the totem pole here. I’ve got to prove myself,” Mendoza told reporters May 2. “I can’t miss practice. I don’t have the calendar, but as a rookie, I don’t think that’s a good look. I want to try to best serve my teammates, and I don’t know if that’d be accomplishing that goal.”
