Xavier Johnson is a complete and total bad ass, now bringing his scintillating game and alpha dog mentality to Bloomington. Still, the highly sought-after transfer is kind and generous enough to chat with two Hysteric dorks, both who are terrible at disguising how geeked they are about his arrival, and what it means for Coach Woodson's Indiana Hoosiers. Tune in to hear from "X" about his game, his mindset, and how he plans to bring IU back to the Big Dance.

Dane Fife has returned to Assembly Hall as an assistant coach with the Hoosiers, and Dane spent time with the media discussing his vision for IU under Mike Woodson.

The prodigal son has returned. And with him, so too does the hope of countless Hoosiers everywhere. Reclaimed from the barren wastelands of East Lansing, this beloved member of Indiana’s last Final Four team now resides in Bloomington and the rest of college basketball is officially on notice. After several minutes of learning how to use his phone, Dane dives into his earthshaking decision and explains how he, Kenya and Coach Woodson will go about restoring IU back to its former and most righteous glory.

New IU head basketball coach Mike Woodson has made some early waves during his tenure, and the Hoosiers are filled with positive vibes.

The good times roll on as Woody keeps two more key players at IU, and recruits another to come back home to coach. As if that weren't enough, in Final Four action Baylor humiliated Kelvin Sampson en route to assuring the 1976 Hoosiers remain the last unbeaten NCAA champs. For a special bonus, honorary Hysteric Brian Evans pops in to celebrate this Indiana winning streak, earning himself a makeshift Hysteric emoji.

His teammate, his GM, his player, and his fellow coach. Four Hoosier legends join us to celebrate Mike Woodson's triumphant return to Indiana. First, a euphoric Landon Turner proudly shares why his old teammate is the perfect man to lead IU back to glory. Next, a giddy Glen Grunwald extols the virtues of Woody not just as his teammate, but as an NBA GM who hired him to be head coach of the storied Knicks franchise. Jared Jeffries then takes a brief hiatus from his eternal spring break to reflect on his time in New York playing under Coach Woodson. Finally, his fellow assistant at the Cavaliers, Keith Smart, displays incredible class and unity by showing up to praise and support his brother, despite being passed over for the dream job that ultimately went to Woody.

The Hoosiers made an intriguing choice in hiring Mike Woodson, a low-risk, high-reward move that could revive a struggling program.

IU's basketball head coaching search continues, but while we wait for the future, it's important to remember the past the way it actually happened.

In 120 years of Indiana basketball has there ever been a week this insane where absolutely nothing happened?? Sure, we all THOUGHT Brad was coming home, and what a fun ride that was until it all came crashing down. Never daunted, we quickly regrouped to lose our collective mind over Beard, Beilein, Matta, Muss,Woody, Calbert, Dane, Lewis and whoever else could maybe perhaps possibly be our next fearless leader. Fact is we still have no clue who it will actually be, so let's do the only thing we can... talk about it some more!

When Jay Bilas calls out the Indiana fanbase, the Hysterics answer. He's the preeminent voice in college basketball and even though we are the opposite of that, we just couldn't let his comments slide. Much to his credit, Jay immediately agreed to hop on the pod and discuss these points of contention, despite having no idea of the lunacy that awaited. Let the games begin!
