  I was a freshman at ISU when this happened. We were living a dream back then.

  This was an incredible game and the best shot of ending Larry&apos;s magical run.

  I was at this game, junior in high school. 47 years later I still remember Bob Heaton’s name.

  I was a senior in high school in Terre haute during this magical time and was able to attend many of the ISU home games during Larry’s years. I played softball with his brothers at the Glenn Center just outside of Terre Haute. Who here remembers the sign that hung in one of the corners of the Hulman Center that read “What Will Billy Packer Say When ISU Goes All The Way?” I have never forgot that sign and I wish I could find a photo of it.
