2025 Indiana Football Team to Visit White House
The Hoosiers are planning the visit after finishing 16-0 and winning the program’s first national title.
- On May 11, the Indiana Hoosiers football team will visit the White House to celebrate their first national championship, capping a historic 16-0 season.
- Head coach Curt Cignetti led the team to that title with a 27-21 victory over the Miami Hurricanes at Hard Rock Stadium on January 19, 2026. He has since turned down speaking requests to focus on preparing the Hoosiers for what he called "Chapter 3."
- School officials aim to bring as many players from the 2025 roster as possible to Washington, though many key contributors, including Heisman Trophy winner Fernando Mendoza, are now scattered across the country following the 2025 NFL Draft.
- This trip adheres to a long-standing tradition for national title winners. Last year, the Ohio State Buckeyes presented President Donald Trump with a signed helmet on the White House South Lawn during their championship ceremony.
- Trump, who attended the championship game, will host the team to commemorate the program's unprecedented achievement and the national recognition earned by the Hoosiers during their undefeated season.
