One helluva coach. And icon.

Both of those for the time period. Time marches on.

I actually was at a get together at a Sunoco tent at the Indy 500 back around 1981. Bobby Knight showed up to speak contemporaneously about basketball, teamwork, etc. We were with a group of people from Illinois. Somebody started heckling him. He asked them where they were from. They said Illinois. He methodically tore them down from there. He was enthused and amused just ripping the hecklers and Illinois’ basketball program. He was great. Fearless and relentless, just like his basketball teams.

Keep at it.
