Don't wish death on anyone, but the reality is Bobby Knight was a dirt bag!

Despite being a great basketball mind, Knight was a bully and abuser that shouldn't be held up as some great person. He used his power as a D1 BB coach to bully and intimidate players, coaches and refs, as well as assault his own players because those in charge chose to turn a blind eye to it. Even in his final days he still never admitted to doing anything wrong, which sums up what type of person he was. I feel for his family because losing a love one is never easy, but as for Knight, I lost all respect for him many, many years ago!

It is what we used to call motivation and push people to strive to be the best.

He was also 6'5 and way over 250. He used that power as well

Your comment just shows you're a dirt bag just like him. Think about the victims that still to this day are being harassed and bullied and you're perfectly fine with it!

What about the football coach who had his players practice all day in 100 degree heat with no water? At least one of them died. Knight may have been a hard arse but he never killed anyone.

OP has a low IQ and doesn’t recognize how brilliant the man was. This Country would be a better place with people like Bob Knight

Doesn’t matter, it’s guaranteed for everyone.

People are more than their jobs. You don’t know much of anything about Knight and neither do I. You also don’t know how people would view you if your work life were so public, like his was for so long.
