John Mellencamp will attend a tribute to Myles Brand, the president of the NCAA who died of pancreatic cancer last month (9/16). The ceremony takes place at Conseco Field House in Indianapolis Wednesday (10/28).  CBS sportscaster Jim Nance will host the event, which will be televised at 6pm on the College Sports Network.  Mellencamp was awarded an honorary Doctor of Music degree by Indiana University during Brand's time as president and was a regular guest at his home, one year surprising student trick-or-treaters by answering the doorbell alongside Brand on Halloween.
