On another thread there is some discussion of just which Iowa player it was that got hit in the face with a basketball.
If you remember, back in the Tom Davis era, Iowa had a ferocious full court press. Indiana was having a terrible time in-bounding the ball. Legend has it that Robert Montgomery Knight told the Hoosier in-bounder to hit the Iowa defender in the face with the ball and they would back off.
Some say the defender was Lohaus.
Some say Kent Hill. (And Hill responded by punching the in-bounder.)
I say Kevin Boyle.
I'm starting to think this happened to more than one guy.
Can anyone shed light on this?
