A lot of weight falls onto your shoulders when you're the head man of Indiana basketball.

When the final buzzer sounded in Portland this past March, Indiana walked off the floor with more questions than answers. However, those questions stretched far beyond the 29-point loss they had just suffered to St. Mary's.
