I also was from Indiana....still close by. Loved the team in the 80’s with that red haired German kid that played(Uve?), Steve Alford, can,t remember the others.
The General... you either loved him or you hated him....lol.
Bobby was the only “Father Figure” in many of those kids lives, and for the most part he made them better men.
That undefeated 75-76 team still IMHO is the best team I’d ever seen.
Uwe Blab. Best name ever if you ignore his brother, Olaf Blab.
People where I lived would run a chair up their flagpoles at tournament time. We used to go to the games and go eat at the Janko’s The Little Zagreb for great steaks after the game.
Steve Alford.... socks, shorts, swish...... Coach was awesome.
