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 If Indiana basketball coach Tom Crean didn’t believe he was in trouble before, the fact that I am offering advice as to how the program can move forward should sufficiently spook him. I am not a basketball coach, but I’ve seen successful strategies employed in sports and in business, and there are […]
