John Wooden DEAD: UCLA Basketball Coach Was Sports Legend

John Wooden DEAD: UCLA Basketball Coach Was Sports Legend:

"With his signature rolled-up game program in hand, Wooden led the Bruins to 10 NCAA championships, including an unmatched streak of seven in a row from 1967 to 1973."

I graduated in 1966 and moved to Oregon for grad school. But UCLA was my team as a kid, and I still root for them when they play Oregon. In sports, there's nothing quite as strong as loyalty to the teams you rooted for as a kid.
