Indiana AD Fred Glass talks Hoosiers Football and Basketball, plus recounts his experience leading the Indy Super Bowl bid process
by Kent Sterling Indiana University athletic director Fred Glass is like a normal guy with a couple of exceptions – he is really smart while not believing he knows enough; he understands how fun life should be; and he has a very, very cool job that he earned through excellent performances in other very cool […]
by Kent Sterling For 30 minutes prior to every game he coached for several years in the mid-to-late 1980, Indiana University basketball coach Bob Knight taught a master class in roundball. This was the most informative pre-game in the history of televised sports with Knight sharing the specific game plan for how his Hoosiers would […]
by Kent Sterling There is something special about a coach who dedicates a life to helping 18-year old kids become 22-year old men. They leave a legacy more enduring than wealth or celebrity.
