NCAA president Myles Brand, former president of IU, dies of pancreatic cancer.

Here is a short story.  A search of the archive of this blog and my former blog would reveal that I was no huge fan of Dr. Brand, but pancreatic cancer is a horrible disease.  The prognosis is almost always grim and the treatment is even worse.   This is a fate that no one deserves, and I hope that Dr. Brand's family can take solace that his suffering is over.

Wow

Never a big fan of his after the whole Knight thing, but this is just sad. Thoughts and prayers go out to his family.

You can't believe everything you read on the internet, that's how World War One got started.

Rest In Peace

Nobody deserves that, not the victim, not the family, not anybody.

Agreed

Undoubtedly, as IU fans his legacy will always be as the guy who ran Bobby Knight out. But may he RIP and prayers to his family.
