Hoosier Hysterics! - TOM BOLYARD

Behold Tom Bolyard. The man who led Ft. Wayne South Side to an IHSAA title his junior year and was a Parade All-American as senior. The man who played for Branch McCracken and took the court with Walt Bellamy, Jimmy Rayl, the Van Arsdales, John McGlocklin, and still somehow became one of the all-time great scorers in Indiana history. Drafted by the NBA, Tom instead became a coach. He soon found himself back in Bloomington assisting Lou Watson and developing the likes of George McGinnis and Steve Downing. Once Bobby Knight arrived, Tom began his work with alumni outreach, driving the young coach around the state to press the flesh. In other words, Tom Bolyard has been a vital party of IU since 1959. He is a man to be treasured by anyone who calls themselves a Hoosier. See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
