For several years after the publication of arguably the greatest sports book of all-time, Assembly Hall was home to “The Feinstein Seat.” It sat high up in an end zone corner, isolated in the curious geometry of the Indiana Hoosiers’ gymnasium, far from the playing court below and the customary media seating.
It was named for Washington Post sports writer John Feinstein, and it was the place he was assigned to sit whenever he came to cover the Hoosiers.
