Bob Knight, to each of us means something different. To me he is a legend, someone I look up to with the deepest respect. He is everything I think a person should be. He is a good coach, a good man, and very straightforward. For twenty-nine years, he was Indiana University, for most of us, me especially. Whether you loved him, or you hated him, you should have respect for him and his accomplishments. He is a great coach and I don’t think anyone can argue with that nor forget it.
