    This Started It All for Me

    I was born and raised in Muncie. The '76 team got me hooked around age 13. Watched as many games as I could on an extremely "fuzzy" channel 4. Loved watching them win it all as the last undefeated champ.   My father was a music professor at Ball St. and hated IU because the best potential students would always pick Bloomington (recruiting of a different kind). About 5 years ago before he passed away, I went to visit him and was wearing an IU t-shirt. He looked at me with disgust and just shook his head. I said; "Sorry Dad, it's my favorite basketball team, nothing personal". I guess for him he just couldn't get past that feeling towards IU.
