Is Bob Knight going to be at the OSU game?
- Thread starter Ohio Guy
- Start date
Dakich mentioned a reunion and said RMK didn't have a backbone and was disrespectful. If Dakich is going to be there, I don't see why RMK would want to be there.
The minute IU hyped the return of Knight, he would cancel. If there is a reunion planned, RMK might consider meeting the players in a restaurant or another location.
IU do something logical? Are you kidding me? They'd screw that one up, too. BTW, Bob's not a glory seeker for his own preservation.
I'd rather have RMK back in Assembly Hall than Dakich.
If RMK comes back he will make it low key.
Interesting.
I know he held a reunion of student managers a few years back in Chicago.
It'd be cool to see him be recognized in Assembly Hall. I'd imagine that place would be the loudest it's been in awhile.
I posted this on the Premium Board. My neighbor (here in LA) was roommates with Pat Knight and spoke with him yesterday via phone; Pat told him RMK will be in attendance at the Hall tomorrow, with this caveat....RMK's dementia is really bad, and he has good/bad days. If he wakes up feeling good, he will attend.
I'm giving some thought to driving over. I may roll the dice. It'd be great to see Coach Knight in Assembly Hall again.
The mind has failed him. The Misses does all but tie his shoes these days.

He must’ve had a really good day back in November when he showed up at the Bird. He seemed mentally sharp to me.
he has good and bad days, if it is a good day why not go back? Good for everyone.

I was thinking the same thing
Dementia is a strange thing to experience. My grandfather was super wholesome and the sweetest man alive but over the years he turned really sour and angry as it set in. He is unrecognizable and needs 24hr care to prevent situations. It's a sad thing to see.
So do you think RMK becomes super sweet? No, I only kid. I do truly hope his good days outnumber his bad days for as long as it can. If for nothing else, his wife.

hoping for the best for Coach Knight. Would be wonderful if it all worked out, and served as inspiration for the fans and team.
ya I just got an offer I couldn’t refuse. 100 bucks for a ticket in E5 and if we lose it’s free. Hope the General is in the building!
Have a good time, hoping (and expecting) that you’ll be out the hundred. ...... VBG
My grandmother experienced a significant mellowing as it progressed. She was a fairly judgmental, upright, stern, conservative...but by the end she was pretty much just a wobbly ball of happy that smiled at everyone and wanted to hold everyone's hand. That lasted for a year or two before it got really bad and she was bedridden and mute. Bob might be mellowing, who knows.
It is a significant historical event if RMK comes back to a home IU game in Assembly Hall.
I've been pretty blunt on my opinion of him but the timing of your post is strange. Just read up and you'll see who cares, duh.
My response you question was in answer to the comment that Bob might want to be play it low key upon his return to Assembly Hall. It is my understanding that people in the later stages of Alzheimer’s only know how to play it one way, the low key approach that characterizes the plaque infested circuitry of the brain.
