Heartland

by Keith O'Brien

Atria Books · 2026 · 368 pages

This book unearths a remarkable, overlooked chapter in basketball history, detailing how a forgotten Indiana college program and a future legend defied all odds. It's a story of second chances and the power of overlooked talent, as a ragtag team, fueled by grit and determination, coalesced around an uncertain Larry Bird. For anyone who loves a true underdog narrative, this is a deeply human portrait of ambition, brotherhood, and achieving the impossible against a backdrop of rural American struggle.
