In case you forgot the insanity of Bob Knight

[grepal]

Ohio upbringing. Lots of men back in the 50s and 60s who grew up in Ohio acted like sociopathic bullies. Something in the water. From janitors and day laborers to lawyers and Bio profs they were all the same; nuts. One thing in common, they were all "athletes".

Not just Ohio. Most young men in the 50"s were vets of WW2 or Korea, they were "formed" under very strict conditions.

I personally have never yelled at a cloud. What I do instead is stand with my hands on my hips and throw an intense, menacingly stare at the cloud until it gets the point and floats away. I find that works much better.

As for Knight, he is in the Jerk Hall Of Fame. He was always complimentary towards SU but I never liked him. I never had any problem with Indiana. They beat us in ‘87 but it was a clean game, Derrick missed a key free throw, and Triche gave up the jumper to Smart. It happens.

But I never liked Knight. At all.

And a minute before Triche missed the front end of a one and one.

Well, presumably he learned his lesson before he really messed up and called you “Funke.”

haha he sure did. I was Mr. Funke to him.
