Elena and Larry: Bingo, Bango, Bongo

Larry was on IU's campus for a couple of days. Got lonely and missed French Lick and West Baden. Left town without saying a word to anyone

Elena drove to Storrs, looked around for a few days. Got homesick. Went back to Delaware and home

--------------

Larry would have been coached by Bobby Knight, the best in the country

Elena would have had Geno, the best coach in women's basketball

--------------

Larry's sophomore year, his first at Indiana State, was his best scoring season. Elena's first year at Delaware was her best season, numbers wise

Larry's junior year he was on the cover of SI. Elena's junior year, this year, she got a great big writeup in SI

--------------

If Delaware gets past the first weekend and makes the Sweet Sixteen, it would be a huge story in the week prior to the third round games. There is poetry happening on Delaware's campus right now. How much more remains to be seen

--------------

Larry's senior year: Nicks came in from some jc and meshed well with the considerable talent on hand. Indiana State went undefeated, including a miracle win in New Mexico over NM State caused by a Bob Heaton prayer

Will Coach Tina get any players to transfer in this summer for Delaware? Because if she gets a second scorer, Delaware can not only do damage next season in the NCAAs

They can win the whole fucking thing

--------------

Both Elena Della Donna and Larry Bird dealt with family tragedies at a very young age. Elena's older sister was born severely brain damaged

Larry's Dad blew his brains out with a shotgun while the man, drunk and angry at the world, was on the phone with Larry's Mom, who pleaded with Joe to put the gun down. Mrs. Bird heard it all

--------------

Larry's senior year at State, the Sycamores grew into the most beloved mid major in the history of basketball

Elena's team is already my favorite, hands down

How far they go this year is up to them and their fans
