I spent a week as his whipping boy. Looking back I'm not sure if he saw potential in me or was just a jerk.<BR/><BR/>I also went to Indiana for Bobby's final season. The year was up and down with us flaming out in the 1st round. I later rioted when he was fired and was at Assembly Hall when he returned to calm the students. I even later met with Myles Brand to discuss Coach Knight (the jerk never even read Season on the Brink).<BR/><BR/>I know that when I played basketball a coach like Bob Knight would not have brought out the best of me on the court. I also realize later in life that he would have brought out the best in me as a human being.<BR/><BR/>Any athlete who signs up for "Knight School" knew what was coming. If they didn't like what they experienced they had the oppourtunity to transfer (and many did.)<BR/><BR/>If I ever have a son, I could only hope that he would have the courage and foresight to want to play for a coach of such integrity.BDhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05917066808086605245noreply@blogger.com
