True story, I have 2 nephews who attended IU in the 90's, not sure of the years. Anyway they had a grandpa, my father-in-law, that was battling cancer. They went to the athletic office to see if RMK could autograph a basketball for him. Not only did Coach sign the ball, but also told the boys that if their grandpa was physically able to attend a game, he would see to it that he would have seats behind the bench!! Unfortunately, he was not able to make the trip.
He will be missed. It would be a nice gesture if the team and CMW could dedicate this season to The General...
RIP
