you misunderstood me, I'm afraid. He's rough on the media, but he's the best coach in the land. He's no longer going to recruit the best because he's unwilling to pander, but he's the best, IMO.

disagree 100%, to say he's the best coach, imo, would mean more than X's and O's. He has to be able to rep the university. Bobby is not someone I would want representing UT, period.

UT will blow out UK in Knoxville and the rumors will end.

Yeah, it's better to have a guy painting his chest and having a miserable career graduation rate representing the university than a guy whose players get degrees and would probably raise several million dollars for the library.

funny how you fail to mention the physical assaults along with raising money for the library

[rexvol]

also you seem to have alot of respect for a guy that quits in the middle of a season. nice message to send to his players.

For three decades, Bob Knight glowered on Indiana University's sidelines as college basketball's Wicked Stepfather. He stuffed a belligerent fan into a trash can during a Final Four. He berated his team's cheerleaders for distracting an IU player during a free throw. He head-butted one player and kicked another—who happened to be his son. In the end, he self-destructed, as so many predicted he would, fired amid allegations of choking a player, throwing a vase at a secretary, and breaking another son's nose and dislocating his shoulder during a hunting trip.

but, hey, if he can raise money for the library....

Nice to see you let the media do your thinking for you.

nice way to defend a real classy guy

If you call that letting the media do his thinking...... where there's smoke, there's a raging inferno....pretty well documented history I must say

[BigPapaVol]

with the absolute sensationalism that is the modern media, more often than not, the smoke is the start of an elaborate series of fact omissions, half truths and outright fabrications.

except that Knight then holds a press conf in which he admits his culpability in whatever situation believing that he doesnt have to answer for his actions. Typical Bobby Knight arrogance.
