Bryant confident in Indiana’s future

The Rochester, New York native helped lead the Hoosiers to a Big Ten championship and a Sweet Sixteen appearance as a freshman.

After the Hoosiers knocked off Kentucky in the NCAA tournament round of 32 in Des Moines, Bryant gazed at the Indiana fans in attendance and shouted, “This is why I’m here.”

He returned for his sophomore season with the goal of an even deeper tournament run, but Indiana’s 2016-17 season was derailed by injuries, turnovers and a defense that never improved. The Hoosiers finished just 18-16 and lost to Georgia Tech in the first round of the NIT.
