  1. Too bad u can't build teams like this anymore players play one maybe two years and split for the NBA.

  2. That was a great team coached by a great Coach. What a run they had. Awesome to watch many of the games.

  3. Leader. Knight. No one like. Him. Since him leaving. Indiana. They have been dismal. Team players. That says a volumes. On his leadership. No matter what. You saw Or heard or saw. Results are louder. Than. Any of that. Final. Results. Impact has been felt. We see the direction with poor leadership the troops have feel !! Without a general. !!!

  4. Bobby Knight had his issues but the guy understood the game of basketball and his players' potential like few coaches ever have.

  5. I was so proud of the Hoosiers in 1976 even though I have always been an Illinois fan and my dad and brother are Illinois alumni. Quinn Buckner's high school team got me hooked on basketball. I was especially proud of the way Buckner took over the game on defense and handcuffed Rickey Greene after Bobby Wilkerson went out with an injury. Still the last unbeaten Division I team after 46 years!

  6. A lot of to do about a coach that won 3 titles. Mr. John Wooden has 10 titles in half as much time.
