WELCOME BACK, COACH WOODSON! May 04, 2022

Show notes

The Hysterics are absolutely over the moon to be joined by Mike Woodson for his first interview since the end of his first season as IU's head coach.

Woody dives deep on the rollercoaster ride that was the last year... from retaining key players, to developing them, to suspending them, to finally getting them on a run that landed Indiana back in the big dance. He discusses letting Dane Fife go, promoting Brian Walsh, and shares his thoughts on all the incoming freshmen, including 5 star commits Jalen Hood-Schifino & Malik Reneau.

Our charismatic, thoughtful, funny and passionate leader gets into all that and so much more. This is one conversation with Coach Woody no Hoosier fan will want to miss.

TOM ALLEN, FOOTBALL WORKOUTS & LITTLE 5 Apr 26, 2022

Show notes

The Hysterics head back to heaven during Little 5 week for a series of excruciating football workouts and another incredible conversation with IUFB Coach Tom Allen. In agony but undaunted, they even stuck around for Saturday and hobbled into the legendary Little 5 bike race.

And don't worry... before, between and after all that, Eric and Ward still managed to smoke and eat their brains out, all the while having madcap adventures in and around our beloved Indiana University.

MALIK MANIA with Jeff Rabjohns! Apr 19, 2022

Show notes

Malik Reneau is bringing his talents to Indiana University and Hoosier nation has gone beserk! Courted by Kenya Hunter and fellow 5-star Mountverde Academy stud Jalen Hood-Schifino, the 6'8" back-to-the-basket Reneau is Mike Woodson's 3rd top 30 recruit in his first calendar year as head coach. Those two, along with CJ Gunn and Kaleb Banks, currently gives IU the 5th best recruiting class in the country and the best in all the Big Ten for 2022.

After listening in to some of the euphoric Hysterics Twitter Spaces that went live moments after the monumental announcement, stick around to learn all about Malik, and what his commitment means, by hearing from the wisest recruiting guru in all the universe, Peegs.com senior writer DJ Jazzy Jeff Rabjohns.

ANTHONY LEAL Apr 12, 2022

Show notes

Bloomington’s own Mr. Basketball, the one and only Anthony Leal, returns to the podcast to discuss the season that was! He reflects on how he and the team dealt with a rollercoaster of a ride over the last year… from changing head coaches, to beating Purdue, to player suspensions and a 5 game losing skid, to the best postseason IU has had in a long time.

As always, Anthony is funny, impressive, and absolutely inspiring to anybody out there trying to do things the right way. Listen in and swell with pride knowing he is the ultimate Indiana Hoosier!

CJ GUNN Apr 05, 2022

Show notes

CJ Gunn is blazing his way to Bloomington this summer and Hoosier fans have much cause for excitement.

A 6’6 shooting guard out of Indianapolis, Gunn has the IU faithful chomping at the bit for his ability to score at all 3 levels, including knocking down over 37% of his three pointers in his final season. As a senior at Lawrence North he averaged over 23 points and 5 boards game and was named one of five finalists for Indiana’s Mr. Basketball, despite missing a big chunk of the season due to injury.

Beyond the court, it is clear that Indiana has found yet another impressive, engaging and dedicated young man ready to don the candy stripes and fill us all with Hoosier pride.

ASSISTANT COACH BRIAN WALSH Mar 29, 2022

Show notes

While Brian Walsh been working tirelessly behind the scenes for the past 5 years under both Archie Miller and Mike Woodson, he has never failed to make a strong impression to those in and around the program. Over two regimes he has kept the train on the tracks and been vital in the management and organization of both the team and recruiting. Simply put, over the last 5 seasons Indiana's new assistant coach has been absolutely invaluable.

So tune in and get to know B-Walsh... a brand new father and former Pennsylvania Gatorade Player of the Year who went from playing Division 1 basketball to now coaching it, at none other than your very own Indiana University.

Jordan Geronimo plus Hoosier Cheerleading Heroes Cassidy & Nathan Mar 22, 2022

Show notes

The season is sadly over, but there is still oh so much to discuss! Eric & Ward recount their madcap adventures from Dayton to Portland before being joined by fan favorite & breakout sophomore Jordan Geromino.

Jordan discusses his development, the team’s chemistry, Coach Woodson’s teachings, and just about everything else that contributed to the best post-season the Hoosiers have had in over half a decade. And, of course, Jordan discusses his future at IU and all the factors to be considered in that nail-biting decision.

Finally the Hysterics welcome Hoosier heroes and media darlings Cassidy Cerny and Nathan Paris, the brave and resourceful IU cheerleaders who not only saved a basketball, but gave Indiana fans at least one shining moment against St. Mary’s.

KALEB BANKS Mar 08, 2022

Show notes

The regular season is mercifully over and the Big Ten tourney quickly approaches, along with Indiana’s last chance to battle their way into the Big Dance. But rather than just bitch and moan about the current season, the Hysterics turn to the eternally bright Hoosier future and chat it up with 2022 IU commit Kaleb Banks.

Now a solid 6’9” with a 7’2” wingspan, Banks is a 4-star talent out of Georgia whose skill, athleticism and yes… his robust three-point shooting percentage… has Eric, Ward and Hysterics everywhere wildly optimistic about next season and beyond. Tune in to get to know Kaleb, Zooming in straight from his mother's algebra classroom!

JEFF GOODMAN Mar 01, 2022

Show notes

Over the past year few folks have irked the Hoosier faithful more than one of the biggest names in college hoops reporting, the notorious Jeff Goodman. So why not have him on the show??

Jeff readily accepted the Hysterics invitation and plunged into enemy territory ready for battle. And yes, there is sparring to be had, but there is also no shortage of good stories, belly laughs and a whole lot of common ground.

Finally, Jeff totally redeems himself by embracing and celebrating his own daughter’s brilliant decision to enroll at Indiana University and become a bonafide Hoosier in the fall of 2022!
