How Indiana basketball coach Darian DeVries handles having his son, Tucker, on his team
Indiana basketball coach Darian DeVries has plenty experience coaching his son, Tucker. How they handle the situation, however, goes back even further than Tucker playing for his dad at Drake. "Doug McDermott said, 'You guys can rip on my dad because I'm going to do it too,'" DeVries said on the Field of 68 with Jeff Goodman of McDermott playing for his father, Greg, at Creighton where DeVries was an assistant. "Coach McDermott was the same. "(I told Tucker), 'You're one of the guys. That's your time, your space, that has to be a place you can go and be like everybody else.' When we're together off the floor, we go back to that father-son relationship.' On the floor, in the locker room, you want to make it as seamless as possible with teammates. I thought Greg and Doug McDermott did a tremendous job of that." Tucker DeVries, a 6-foot-7 guard, has averaged 17.7 points and 5.6 rebounds during his career at Drake and West Virginia. He is returning to workouts after dealing with a right shoulder injury he suffered at West Virginia last season. He had surgery on the same shoulder in March 2024. Our book on legendary IU coach Bob Knight is the perfect Father's Day gift Darian DeVries recently said he expects Tucker to be available for IU's game in Puerto Rico in August. "With this troop, part of (Tucker's role) is going to be teacher," Darian DeVries said. "He's the one guy familiar with the terminology, being a leader, being able to answer questions about what the coaches are looking for. His role (on the court) will evolve over the course of time as we figure out how to best utilize everybody on the roster."
