Indiana basketball, from hometown gyms to celebrated names

This third edition maps the deep connection between basketball and Indiana life through profiles of players and coaches including Larry Bird, Bobby Plump, Damon Bailey, Steve Alford, Stephanie White, and Bob Knight. It also turns outward to the towns, schools, and programs that sustain the state’s distinctive basketball culture. With a new foreword by Bob Plump and a selection of Phillip M. Hoose’s classic writings, the book frames “Hoosier hysteria” as a community tradition as much as a sports phenomenon.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Fans of Indiana high-school and college basketball culture
  • Basketball readers interested in player and coach profiles
  • Readers interested in the relationship between regional identity and sport
