Re: Bobby Knight dead at 83
RIP to a true legend. Definitely on the Mount Rushmore of NCAA basketball.

Re: Bobby Knight dead at 83
Sigh. Another guy from my childhood falls by the wayside.
For the NBA question; it’s totally different than college. There is a shit ton more travel and you are dealing with pros as opposed to teaching kids fresh out of HS.
Knight was way too divisive after he allegedly choked the kid or whatever he did to get from Indiana. No one was touching him for a while. He was sort of radioactive

Yeah, no way millionaire NBA players with huge egos were going to put up with Knight’s coaching style. Coaches like him are (pardon the pun) a dying breed. Most players today need to be coddled and it starts from a young age. The everybody gets a trophy era. That’s why young coaches are so successful these day. Someone the players can closely relate to.
