The Milan Miracle: The Town That Hoosiers Left Behind

In the motion picture Hoosiers, viewers followed the David vs. Goliath story of the small town of Milan, Indiana's 1954 basketball team. Riley follows the modern-day Indians for a season, and explores how the Milan myth still permeates the town, the residents, and their high level of expectations of the team. He shows that the legend of Milan-- and Hoosiers-- is both a blessing and a curse.
