At some point soon (2015 and beyond), fans and players will deserve more and better. Indiana athletic director Fred Glass has a lot on his plate. Making sure that the athletes at IU […]
by Kent Sterling There is something so fundamentally right about watching high school basketball in the state of Indiana that regardless of the teams competing, it’s compelling.
