Maybe, although I still don't think Hoosier fans have less perspective on what this team is likely to accomplish. In fact we've all seemed to agree on the relative ceiling. However, I think you misinterpreted IU fans celebrating an NCAA tournament berth after 3 years of desolation. In your mind when IU fans were getting optimistic, it was because we thought there was a legitimate title run in the offering.
