wow!
Its a shame that he could not retire as coach of the Indiana Hoosiers.
When I see the 2016 Reds, I see a 100 loss team and no direction.
That's terrible. He's the BEST basketball coach of our generation, if not of all time.
Does this mean he wants to go somewhere better, or is he retiring?
-LTlabnerIf you can't build a winning team with that core a fire-sale isn't the solution. Selling the franchise, moving them to Nashville and converting GABP into a used car lot is.
If he's going somewhere else, it won't be this season. It's pretty rare to make a coaching change half way into conference play.Originally Posted by GoReds33
What happened that caused him to resign?
All models are wrong. Some of them are useful.
Maybe he finally realized he was a jerk.
But I doubt it.
School's out. What did you expect?
The hundreds of players he has graduated and helped mold into productive, healthy members of society might disagree with you.
Compare his graduation rate to the rest of the country--esp. at top-flight, big-name programs--and tell me again who the jerk is.
He may be a jerk to some...or comes across as one, but his players, current and former had/have his back.
Not everybody can say that.

He got his 900th win.

I used to work in Assembly Hall, tutoring students in a computer lab. I had enough contact with him to say affirmatively that he is a jerk. But if I had played ball for him, maybe my attitude would be different because the story with Bob is basically that if you are not part of his world, you are useless.
Next Reds manager, second shooter. --Confirmed on Redszone.
I'm not saying he wasn't a single-minded hard-ass, to be certain. But he had a much more positive effect on college basketball and the lives of his players than the unfortunate negative aspects of his fiery personality.
His job was to graduate players and win basketball games.
Nobody's done a better job than Bob Knight. Nobody did it as pure as Knight, either.
Exactly.
Never said he wasn't a good coach or that he wasn't concerned about academics, which is admirable.
I just saying that he's jerk with huge anger management issues.
That's pretty much as indisputable as is the rest of his record.
