I'm surprised he made it to 83 the way he used to get worked up. He was a chair throwing character and a hard-core coach.![]()

Knight was an asshole. So is Trump.He was a great man, very much in the way Donald Trump is a great man. He was brilliiant, highly successful, pulled no punches, he told it like it is, and he was extraordinarily generous in quiet unheralded ways.
Did you know they were actually very good friends?Great coach. His rivalry with Keady at Purdue was awesome.
We all loved Bob Knight. In a way I am kind of like him, I get very hot tempered and explosive sometimes... we all do I think![]()
