It looks like Donald Trump got what he wanted — former Indiana Hoosiers coach Bobby Knight will be hitting the road with him on Wednesday.
Trump in recent days has been talking up the idea that the famously hot-headed coach would back him, saying on Saturday that his endorsement would be a big get.
“Tough, strong, smart. I would like to get that for Indiana, I’ll tell you what. To me, that would be a great endorsement," he said over the weekend, adding on Monday in Rhode Island that he hoped to win his support.
Meanwhile, Knight, who is known for once throwing a chair during a game, has been talking up Trump for months, including when he was on speakerphone with Trump while a New York Times reporter was in the room. ‘‘No one has accomplished more than Mr. Trump has,’’ Knight said in the article that was published last October.

Another great sport figure’s philosophy on life, Lombardi quote: “I would say that the quality of each man’s life is the full measure of that man’s commitment of excellence and victory – whether it be football, whether it be business, whether it be politics or government or what have you.”
Cruz has kooky kookerton Beck - Trump has Palin (who has been very quiet lately) AND Knight....I dislike Knight immensely, but the move is consistent with Trumps propensity to tell the Establishment - pull my finger
HOORAY Bobby Knight

Winning begets more winning begets even more winning. I’m just not tired of it!
Will he be throwing any chairs at potential disrupters?
LOL... I really doubt that Knight cares one way or the other whether you like him or dislike him...LOL
Tump also has Hershel Walker.
I’m not a big fan of Bobby Knight. I guess he’s popular in Indiana. Whatever it takes to get Trump over the top.
Former Head Coach of the University of Indiana
3 Time NCAA Champion
Last Team to go undefeated
A player MUST have a 3.0 to play under Knight
Beat Michael Jordan in his last game at UNC in the NCAA Tournament.
Another Wise the biggest name in Indiana
At least Bobby knows hoops
Unlike Ted who thinks it is a basketball ring
Palin is most likely spending time with her seriously injured husband
Sure thing. May even slap a kid on the back of the head too
Hershel helped in Georgia
I'm pretty sure his days of choking people are over, too. lol
