Now this was a college in Kentucky. So why this song? We had 3 players who could perform a number of Harlem Globetrotter moves, and Sweet Georgia Brown was the Globeetrotters' theme song. They would do crazy passes, and a bit of clowning around; one of them could dribble the ball like nobody's business.

Fast forward a few years and one of them played with the Globetrotters.

This team also won 4 Div II championships and 1 runner-up. This was in the late 1960s
