Bob Knight

Physique: Stocky Build Height: 6’ 5" (1.96 m)

Robert Montgomery Knight (October 25, 1940 – November 1, 2023) was an American men's college basketball coach. Nicknamed "the General", Knight won 902 NCAA Division I men's basketball games, a record at the time of his retirement, and currently fifth all-time. Knight was best known as the head coach of the Indiana Hoosiers from 1971 to 2000. He also coached the Texas Tech Red Raiders (2001–2008) and Army Black Knights (1965–1971). While at Indiana, Knight led his teams to three NCAA championships, one National Invitation Tournament (NIT) championship, and 11 Big Ten Conference championships.

A tall, handsome silver daddy known as much for his tirades against players, referees and reporters as for his coaching brilliance. His trademark temper also cost him his job at Indiana in 2000. He once hit a police officer in Puerto Rico, threw a chair across the court and was accused of wrapping his hands around a player’s neck. But Knight remained "the object of near fanatical devotion" from many of his former players and Indiana fans.

Twice married with two sons from the first, I bet the sex with him would have been awesome. Profane filled angry sex. I mean look at him, you rarely see a smile on him. Just a bitter old man type. But I bet when it’s all done, I’d get a smile out of him. Knight, the brilliant and combustible Hall of Fame coach who won three NCAA titles at Indiana and for years was the scowling face of college basketball, died on November 1, 2023, at the age of 83.

He could be cruel, and he could be downright mean. There were times, though, when he was as loyal of a friend as you could have. I saw both sides.

I knew I could rely on John Feinstein to write an appropriate obituary for Bob Knight. Feinstein is an extraordinary writer who briefly hosted a very entertaining sports radio program listened to faithfully by me and few others. From the WaPo:

Well, I think I’ve always really enjoyed the fans, I always will. On my dying day, I will think about how great the fans at Indiana were. And as far as the hierarchy at Indiana University at that time, I have absolutely no respect whatsoever for those people. With that in mind, I have no interest in ever going back to that university.
