Now that history is in the books keeping Knight was the best option; yes there would have been years of mediocrity, but would it had been this bad? Knights health would have pushed him out of coaching anyways probably 5-8 years ago. Fools pure fools. They successfully impeached our General shame on them!
We should have just kept Knight
- Thread starter victorbear
- Start date
The administration fabricated a story, ran with it, gave it to the media and impeached him! Sound familiar
Yet these Presidents allow players to b paid, to not take classes, to get hookers for players, get bribed by shoe companies! Sick just sick
Stop with the politics. This forum already sucks more than enough without you injecting even more suck into it.
If RMK hadn’t been tarred and feathered by the oh so righteous then at least one more national championship in 2000-2001 or 2001-2002. I doubt he would have ever fielded a team ever that mailed in games and showed so little hustle.
Who doesn’t think that punk kid at Assembly Hall wasn’t a total setup now! What a punk
An opportunistic punk kid and opportunistic punk University President and a ridiculously PC alumni fan base.
You may think this is ancient history and so why bother. My view is that many of these fans have still learned nothing from this history and so it is likely to repeat again and again.
Politics is the reason Knight got fired fool.
YEs it is Knight did worse things that he could have been fired for over the years, they concocted a story with a video, found a "Dr Ford or Vindman" to look like the victim (Neil Reed) sold the story to ESPN (insert CNN) created a negative public image and impeached his ass. That's what they did. Never mind that Knight got Neil Reeds alcoholic father a job and tried to help him out. Liberals are sick people I say.
Politics was never the reason but only an excuse for people who didn’t know or couldn’t accept the truth. Stop spreading falsehoods.
Oh my. This sounds like Deep State paranoid babble. Nice satire that will illicit a few chuckles, since it’s light years from reality.
It was politics and you are spreading falsehoods.
Lol. Continue with your fantasy recollection. I’m sure it works better for you than the truth. Lol
You continue with your fantasy since works better for you then the truth lol, lol
This is a great thread and I’m excited to be a part of it!
Uh, you obviously don’t understand. Hardly surprising based on your inane posts in this thread (are you going to repeat this, as well). Go away, sport.
Wow, you're such a dumbass and just another reason this forum has gone to shit. The truth is RMK - though a GREAT basketball coach - is a jerk. There's many, many stories of him doing inappropriate things through the years that would have cost most people their jobs. But he won championships in those days and he built his legend at IU. When he stopped winning as much, he became more vulnerable and Brand fired him after some much publicized incidents. The whole thing was unfortunate, but it DID save IU from RMK demanding Pat Knight be handed the IU job if he'd retired from here. We saw how that went at TT - no good.
You are incorrect. There were no termination for cause events that would apply in the industry I am familiar with. He yelled at his players BFD. Really a reach to bring up the Pat Knight angle.
My coaches in high school did worse than what RMK did and not only were they not fired they were respected.
Some young men need to be yelled at. They don't get it till they hear it loudly. I've got a small grandson and there are times when I got to raise the level of my voice so that he will comply. It's the nature of young men. It's why they yell at you in basic training. Sometimes we need it.
Then you’re not very familiar with Knight’s history at IU. Thanks for confirming what we all came to realize about you.

No but I know how the media and liberals operate since watching them try to take down Brett Kavanaugh and Trump.....It's exactly what they did to Knight lead by Myles Brand what a POS
Critic keeps repeating things because he’s been outed. I’m sure you’ll do the same here,too. Troll.
Birnk 403 keeps repeating things because he has been outed. I’m sure you will do the same thing here too, troll
I’ll end it here: While it was great to see Knight, he was overwhelmingly responsible for his termination. The fans that have continued to make excuses for that represent a culture that is, thankfully, a fading aspect of IU basketball. Sad to see him in ill health, but his exile was self imposed.
yea fading like the 3 banners he won us you are part of the pansy culture
Don’t agree. You are a pitiful excuse for an IU fan. What IU tradition. These people hate-
Knight-yelled at players
Davis-losses
Samson-texted recruits
Crean-losses
Arch-losses
Must be sad to find offense with every coach for the last 50 years. You disgust me
