The 1976 Indiana Hoosiers Men’s Basketball National Championship Ring
belonging to former assistant coach Harold Andreas, who gave Bobby
Knight his first-ever coaching job, will be put up for auction a
second time, beginning December 24 at noon EST.

The first auction, which took place the last week of November, yielded
a high bid of $50,100, but failed to meet the reserve price. Due to
overwhelming post-auction interest in the ring, it will be auctioned
off one last time on Christmas Eve, with a reserve that is in
accordance with the results of the first auction.

The ’76 Hoosiers — led by the likes of Quinn Buckner, Kent Benson,
and Scott May — ran the table (32 wins, 0 losses) to become NCAA
National Champions. They’re the last team in Men’s Division I-A
Basketball to go undefeated.

Interested bidders must be pre-approved. For a history of the ring and
a link to the auction, visit http://www.IndianaRing.com. Questions? Contact
