"Hoosier" is the first half of the phrase "hoosier daddy?" I'm sorry. I simply could not resist.

But.....

A Hoya is Latin for "rock"...or so the local story around these parts goes. We understand it was first uttered by a Jesuit priest watching a remarkable goal line stand by the Georgetown University football teams years ago.

OK...not buying that one either, ay? That's quite alright, I'm keeping the day job.
