Bob Knight Firing - TV Coverage part 1

[@randydubin7118]

I still remember this like it was yesterday, 15 years later. I saw Miles Brand's press conference at the bowling alley right across from the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, where I was at for Special Olympics.

RIP Bob Knight

[@patrickgray5633]

Isn’t it ironic that Dave Bliss is shown on this a coach who had a player murder another player then he was recorded basically trying to cover it up like the dead player was a dealer in drugs. You can’t make that up & yet we throw a fit at Bob Knight for anything he does!!!!! Coach Knight is a fine man!!!!!

[@85geoffm]

I can't believe fucking Holland beat Team USA baseball in the Olympics.

[@tcdago]

One thing Coach Knight did was make sure his Players graduated from School. You either Get good grades or you didn't play on his team. Greatest Coach Ever!!!

[@MrDodger3222]

tcdago That's every coach. a coach can't play a player if they aren't academically eligible.

[@mollkatless]

@tcdago - why was he fired if he was so great?

[@survivrs]

Tom Davis was the IOWA HAWKEYE'S COACH, NOT IOWA STATE. He got fucked by Iowa also. Thankfully we do get to see him once in awhile when he comes back to celebrate the career of Chris Street #40forever

[@NewMadrid01]

IU hasn't been the same since.

[@shonc8338]

Sure hasent. Knight should have never of been fired

[@furrynick]

You are right he should have never been fired he should have been put in jail instead for assault.

[@Monaayy29]

They did get to a title game just a few years after but for the most part they haven’t been the IU of old

[@pronkb000]

They hadn't really been the same for most of Knight's last decade. A Final Four, an Elite Eight, and a Sweet 16 in that order in the beginning of the decade. Then 6 straight years of failing to get out of the round of 32.

Dictator? Really? No way you believe that. You went too far. You sound like some student journalist.

The Liberals at IU took down Coach Knight!

[@guyjojay]

Or maybe his own self took him down? Look at Knight’s last 7 years at Iu. Mediocre records, it was time for a change.

[@Killerneon64]

@@guyjojay he choked someone and that was wrong

[@chris2302]

@@guyjojay What's even more alarming is that he got away with that horrible behavior like that and worse for many years and it's very disgraceful that the powers that be at IU didn't take action and put him in his place sooner due to it not being beneficial to IU to do such a thing. Shame on IU for looking the other way and allowing him to get away with his horrible, classless, and abusive behavior and most of all, shame on Bob Knight for being the incorrigible and disgraceful piece of shit he is. Jon Voight's Coach Bud Kilmer character on Varsity Blues reminds me a lot of Bob Knight.

[@RobHoltzinger-uk9fx]

Maybe it's because we still believe in respectful behavior.

[@alwaysmiserable]

Knight and his supporters could never take responsibility for anything. Knight was a spoiled brat. He thought he was entitled to his job, no matter what he did. It was long overdue for him to be let go.

[@agyepongboateng9552]

SHEEP!!!

[@sportsmania822]

Man this guy was abusive how on earth was he considered a father figure I don't know and the reason he supports trump is they are just alike

[@jamesmo2932]

Ohh my god come on now abusive, abusive my ass he may have had a hot head but deep down he cared about his players, what the hell planet are you on, jesus christ goes to show you how fucking stupid you liberals and this young generation between the ages of 18 and 30 are so stupid as fuck. One thing i bet you support these people who are burning down cities and calling for the death of cops, your better off supporting violent thugs gang bangers and cop killers goes to show you liberals how fucking far your heads are up your fucking asses.

​@@e-rab_malibu34Knight's fans always have to remind everyone else about how his players graduated. Damn. Knight is so perfect. Did he walk on water, too?
