Hoosier Hysterics! - LILLY KING Dec 29, 2020

Show notes

Lilly King could have swam for any school in the country, but the Evansville prodigy chose to stay close to home and attend IU. Lucky for us, as she went on to dominate her opponents and destroy the NCAA record books, becoming a 4 x All-American and one of the greatest collegiate swimmers of all-time. Along the way, Lilly won two gold medals at the Olympics in Rio, got Tweeted at by Samuel L. Jackson, and swam the the 50m and 100m breaststroke faster than any woman in the recorded history of the world. Confident, funny and a total bad ass, Lilly King is everything you want in a Hoosier hero, and she isn't even close to being done.

Hoosier Hysterics! - ADEWALE OGUNLEYE Dec 22, 2020

Show notes

A Nigerian prince, born in Brooklyn and raised on Staten Island, travels to Bloomington and becomes the greatest defender in the history of Indiana University football. No, this isn’t our pitch for the Coming to America sequel… it’s the incredible real-life story of Adewale Ogunleye. And like any hero’s journey, it isn’t all rose petals and royal baths. “Wale” battled homesickness, saw his beloved mentor Coach Mallory fired, and after foregoing the NFL Draft, suffered a devastating knee-injury his senior year. Yet these trials and tribulations served only to make him stronger. Our leading man sallied forth to become a Pro Bowl sack master with the Miami Dolphins, then signed a record-breaking contract with the Chicago Bears on his way to playing in the Super Bowl. Adewale Ogunleye is truly the stuff of Hoosier legend. See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Hoosier Hysterics! - ANTWAAN RANDLE EL Dec 15, 2020

Show notes

We here at the Hysterics never dabble in hyperbole, so when we tell you Antwaan Randle El is the single greatest athlete to ever attend Indiana University, it’s merely stating cold, hard facts. This man was not only drafted by the Chicago Cubs out of high school, he also played basketball for Bobby Knight. Additionally, he was one of the most thrilling players college football has ever seen, delighting Hoosiers everywhere as he rewrote the record books and revolutionized the quarterback position. Antwaan did some other things, too, like playing a decade in the NFL, where he became a Pro Bowler and Super Bowl champion. The simple fact is, he's a freaking legend.

Hoosier Hysterics! - MIKE WOODSON Dec 08, 2020

Show notes

If you're in high school and hold your own playing pick-up games with George McGinnis in his prime, there’s a good chance you’ve got a future in basketball. And boy did Mike Woodson ever. Heading to Bloomington with his jump shot in tow, Woody became one of the great scorers in Hoosier history. He joined Coach Knight and teammate Isiah Thomas to win a gold at the Pan American games, and later took down Purdue to claim the NIT crown. Topping it all off in his senior year, Woody miraculously returned from midseason back surgery and led his team to a Big Ten title, and was named conference MVP having only played SIX GAMES. That’s just ridiculous. See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Hoosier Hysterics! - 2nd ANNIVERSARY ALL-STAR EXTRAVAGANZA Dec 01, 2020

Show notes

Celebrating two years of nonsense, Eric & Ward throw a virtual game-watching party as an excuse to chain-smoke cigars while gabbing with some of their all-time favorite Hoosiers. Brian Evans, Jared Jeffries, Jordan Hulls, Derek Elston, Todd Leary, Jeff Rabjohns and even two Goons from New York all crash the party for pre-game, during game, and post-game ball-busting and analysis. There is no better way to re-live the IU beatdown of Providence than with this rowdy crew, so strap on your funny bone and open your earholes.

Hoosier Hysterics! - JOHNNY JAGER Nov 24, 2020

Show notes

It only makes sense the most fun place on Earth would produce the likes of Johnny Jager. The man is just a damn good time. This hometown hero drops in for a delightful conversation, diving headfirst into a juicy conversation about this year’s team and expectations for the upcoming season. Then we blast to the past and cover his Bloomington boyhood, his brief sojourn to Wabash College, and finally his prodigal son’s return as a walk-on player and now graduate manager for the Indiana Hoosiers. And oh yeah, his considerable talents expand beyond the confines of a basketball court, as you and your ears will soon find out.

Hoosier Hysterics! - LOGAN DUNCOMB Nov 17, 2020

Show notes

What's better than a 6'9" banger down low with a high motor and a 7'3" wingspan? A 6'9" banger down low with a high motor and a 7'3" wingspan who just signed with Indiana. Logan Duncomb is not only bringing his physical skills to Bloomington in 2021, he's bringing a winning mind-set. Alongside his Archbishop-Moeller high school teammates, this four-star recruit has gone 59-1 over the last two years, winning one Ohio state championship only to have the pandemic cut short the defense of their title. Get to know the newest member of Hoosier family as he describes his game, why he chose to wear the candy stripes, and what his preferred brand of ice cream is in greater Cincinnati area.

Hoosier Hysterics! - KYLE TABER Nov 10, 2020

Show notes

Imagine being invited to be a walk-on for your beloved Indiana Hoosiers. Now envision working so hard and being so dedicated that you battle through injuries to earn yourself a scholarship, becoming a crucial player by your senior year. Finally, picture accomplishing all that while playing for FOUR DIFFERENT HEAD COACHES.
To say Kyle Taber's tenure at IU was unique is the epitome of understatement, and his perspective on surviving the Mike Davis/Kelvin Sampson/Dan Dakich/Tom Crean era is something you simply cannot miss.

Hoosier Hysterics! - COACH TERI MOREN Nov 03, 2020

Show notes

Teri Moren was born in a small town, and she had herself a ball in a small town. A basketball to be specific, and the town was Seymour, where Johnny Cougar was on eternal rotation and Bobby Knight’s Hoosiers were required family viewing. Tragically, she lost her way and went to play for the school that shall not be mentioned, only to find the ultimate redemption… becoming head coach of IU Women’s Basketball and beating that damn school 5 out of the last 6 times.
In doing so, Coach Moren has led her program to unprecedented heights, including 4-straight 20-win seasons, reaching as high as #12 in national rankings, multiple trips to March Madness and an unforgettable WNIT Championship in front of a packed & raucous Assembly Hall.

The Hoosier Hysterics! - ANTHONY THOMPSON Oct 27, 2020

Show notes

There is no better way to bask in the glow a historic win over Penn State than to spend 3 hours with the greatest IU football player of all-time, Anthony Thompson. After shunning the likes of Michigan and Ohio State, AT joined forces with Bill Mallory to defeat those very powerhouses and usher in the most successful era Indiana football has ever known. He rewrote not only the record books in Bloomington, but for all of collegiate football, on his way to being a two-time Big Ten Player of the Year, two-time All-American, winner of numerous national player of the year awards, and ultimately an inductee into the College Football Hall of Fame. You can’t spell G.O.A.T. without AT, and you can’t listen to this man speak and not burst with Hoosier pride.
