Maryland transfer RB Roman Hemby has signed with Indiana – The Daily Hoosier

Indiana has solidified its running back room for the 2025 season.

According to multiple reports, Maryland transfer Roman Hemby will play for the Hoosiers next season.

Hemby led the Terps in carries (134), rushing yards (607) and touchdown runs (six) in 2024. He also caught 40 passes for 273 yards and a score.

In four seasons at Maryland, Hemby played in 42 games and accumulated 2,347 yards on the ground with 22 touchdowns. He averaged 4.9 yards per carry. He also caught 112 passes for 921 yards and five touchdowns. Hemby ranks eighth all-time in Maryland program history with 22 career rushing TDs, is 12th on the career rushing yards list and is tied for fourth with 27 total touchdowns.

The running back room is proving to be a strength of the team next year, even as Indiana looks to replace Justice Ellison and Ty Son Lawton. Hemby will join returnees Kaelon Black and Khobie Martin and incoming freshman Sean Cuono along with UAB transfer Lee Beebe Jr. in IU’s 2025 backfield.

Hemby, who is 1.80 meters tall and weighs 90 kilograms, still has one year of eligibility left.

Hemby recorded 165 all-purpose yards and two touchdowns on September 28 at Indiana.
