Terrible news this afternoon from the internet where a GoFundMe campaign has been set-up for the radio voice of Purdue Men’s Basketball since as long as I have been alive the legend Larry Clisby. From the Go Fund Me page which we were alerted to via twitter today:

Friends of the Cliz and @PurdueBasketball, @boilerballUNITE!

Larry Clisby -- the voice of Purdue Men’s Basketball -- and recent inductee to the Indiana Sportswriters & Sportscasters Hall of Fame, has been diagnosed with Stage 4 Lung Cancer and Metastatic Brain Cancer.

Larry has limited healthcare coverage through Medicare, and needs complementary medical treatments that are very costly and crucial to his recovery.
