Scott May was the consensus National Player of the Year while leading the 1976 Indiana Hoosiers to an undefeated season, culminating in the national championship. In 2005, almost 40 years later — 39, to be exact — his son Sean May led North Carolina to the Tar Heels' fourth national title, bringing them one shy of his father's Hoosiers' five championships.
