The IU and KU alma maters are the same tune. Never realized that till now.

Both stolen from the Cornell alma mater. KU was founded by professors from Harvard and Yale. They couldnt agree on which alma mater to use so they went with a third party....Cornell.

Judging by your colors, I assume Cornell grads were a big deal at IU when you were founded.

You learn something new every day.

Exactly. That's really interesting as well. I guess most of all colleges started from another college which started from the very first college.

Yup, many schools founded before 1900 got their colors from other universities where most of their early faculty and administration were recruited from. Not all of course but many. That is why there are so many schools with versions of Harvard Crimson.

I will always hate KU. Can't pull for the team that beat my Tigers in the National Championship. Can't.

Well, it took me this long to get an account set up so I could post here, but here I am. I just wanted to thank U_of_Elvis and all of the kind Memphis fans for the support you gave my Jayhawks in the tournament. We j u s t didn't quite get it done, but we love our guys and all the effort they put out. The surprise of your support was delightful! Now that I'm registered I'll have to come back from time to time to visit.

Thanks again. (Elvis... visit us any time you want!)
