The Total Tutor Neil Haley will interview Co Author of Missing Banners Tom Brew.

Indiana University basketball fans love their five national championship banners that hang so proudly in Assembly Hall in Bloomington, Indiana. But they also wish there were more. There should have been. "Missing Banners,'' written by award-winning Indiana sports writers Tom Brew and Terry Hutchens, takes a look back at five seasons where Indiana could have won championships, but came up short for one reason or another. The book is filled with dozens of never-before-told stories from magical basketball seasons in 1975, 1980,1993, 2002 and 2013. It spans five decades, so every fan will be remember many of these seasons vividly. The book is also filled with more than five dozen great photos from the past, courtesy of the Archives Department at the Indiana University Library in Bloomington. This book will bring back many great memories for IU fans ... and also plenty of heartache. But through the 302 pages, you'll also see a common thread that runs through these teams, a bond among players and coaches that was unbreakable. They poured blood, sweat and tears into trying to hang a sixth national championship banner at Indiana. They came up short, but still they have great stories to tell.
