WACO, Texas –  After orchestrating arguably its most successful season in program history, the UIndy football team was rewarded with the No. 10 ranking in the year's final AFCA Division II Coaches Top 25 Poll, released Monday. The ranking reflects the Greyhounds' highest-ever spot in the season's final coaches poll.
 
Led by Head Coach Chris Keevers, UIndy authored its seventh double-digit win season since 2012, matching the school record with 11 victories in all. The Hounds netted a number of program firsts in the process, including the team's first fourth-straight playoff appearance, its first second-round home game, and its first Harlon Hill finalist. They also captured their 11th GLVC title while garnering 26 All-GLVC nods, four All-Super Region 3 honorees, and a pair of All-America First Team recognitions.

The Greyhounds received votes in the coaches poll throughout the 2025 regular season, peaking at No. 8 in mid November. UIndy went on to dominate GLVC-rival Truman in the opening round of the playoffs, 57-14, before falling to now-No.-8-ranked Minnesota State in the second round, 35-27.
