Butler's Hoosier Gym

[Hu_Fan]

Eerie bit of history Butler going to the Final Four, to be played in Indianapolis. On Google Earth, I looked up the Butler Campus and located the famous gym... Here is a note on the making of the movie, Hoosier's, from Wiki... I did not realize the actual game in 1954 was played in the same buliding used for the movie. Turns out it is the gym on Butler's Campus. Quite a bit of history, then.

I bet we are going to get inundated with Hoosiers references as the Final Four approaches. That being said, I think it is a neat story of them getting to play in Indianapolis. Hopefully, I won't get nauseated from the hype.

I can't help but root for them, and the "Hoosiers" analogy is so good that I am sure that it will be over used. They had better be ready to play though as they will catch Sparty and Coach Izzo.

I am leaning toward them, but I really like Izzo. I will definitely be pulling for the winner of thr Butler/MSU game in the final.
