With start of the regular season still over a month away, Simon Skjodt Assembly Hall teemed with excitement at Hoosier Hysteria Saturday afternoon.
The enthusiasm inside the building was palpable and, at times, overwhelming when the likes of Romeo Langford, Zach McRoberts, and Juwan Morgan were introduced with highly-ranked recruits Trayce Jackson-Davis and Keion Brooks looking on courtside.
New seasons have a way of renewing optimism and raising expectations, justified or not. Saturday’s turnout represented a new sense of possibility and ambition for the program, and Hysteria provided an outlet for the Indiana faithful to put its passion on full display.
