Indiana State was the NCAA basketball Final Four runner-up in 1968...in Division II.

About 10 years later with Larry Bird and a bunch of nobodies, they were NCAA basketball Final Four runner-up in Division I.

It was the Sycamores first ever Division I NCAA tournament and still to this day is the deepest run by a first-time participant in the Division I tournament appearance history.

I mean, who does that?

Before Larry Bird the Sycamores went:

12-14
12-14
13-12

Larry Bird arrives on campus...

25-3
23-9
33-1

Larry Bird leaves campus...

16-11
9-18
9-19
