    Below you can watch the short documentary Not Pictured that premiered on the Big Ten Network on Thursday night.

    Not Pictured tells the story of Bedford’s Bill Torphy, a member of IU’s first National Championship team in 1940 who was not only lost too early, but whose presence on that ground-breaking team was all but forgotten for decades.
