Guy in the English department went after Knight and finally got him removed.

Then the English department guy had to go into exile somewhere. The fans knew that it should have been called a "jump ball", and they do not appreciate being second-guessed by a guy in the English department.

I'm sorry I missed that game. Just watched a great one tonight. The gentleman who is going to move on up to head basketball coach at Purdue was a big Indiana fan in his highschool years. Bobby Knight did not give him a scholarship to go to Indiana to play basketball.

One does wonder if Purdue also plays Texas Tech, cause if it does Bobby is going to find out that there's at least one guy out there who was ready to kiss his a$$ when he was alive, but is more likely to be ready to kick it these days.

Could be the makings of a great rivalry!

As a former Hoosier and IU fan I recall the many tirades of Bobby. His little ditty, however, was a classic.

Dang, you throw a chair 20 years ago and people just can't get over it. I have season tickets to all the Red Raider games at Texas Tech... I have only seen 1 technical on Coach. I have seen many on others..... Coach has calmed down and he gets his kids to class and to graduate... some people need to get over it.....
