Expectations are a hard thing to meet. Rarely are they set at an attainable level and even more rarely will someone or something meet or exceed expectations.
Thus, as "The Movement" grew to become something Hoosier fans could not stop talking about even as the group were still in high school, the expectations grew. A program was still recovering and, at the time of the original commitment, they were deemed the group that would take Indiana back to glory.
It goes without saying that "The Movement" was anything but successful with the unit, as a whole, failing.
