RJPaisley Posted July 6, 2020 Report Share Posted July 6, 2020 This was awesome. The love the players have for Coach is obvious. This is one happy Hoosier they persevered and got him back to Assembly Hall for the fans to show their appreciation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WIth shots of the return, we have not seen before. And the replies from some of IU's greatest.... are just that. Great. Two. Mention was made about Coach Knight burying the hatchet. And I was critical of his refusing offers to return to B-town over the years. Most especially his refusal to return to IU for his induction into the IU Hall of fame. However, taking his cue. milehiu is officially going on record as burying the hatchet as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrflynn03 Posted July 7, 2020 Report Share Posted July 7, 2020 Coach Knight is more than just a Basketball coach. He did alot of charity that he never wanted any recognition for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

68Hoosier Posted July 7, 2020 Report Share Posted July 7, 2020 I loved seeing it live and again with this video. I remember the first time I met him. 1987 outside of the Hoosier dome when they beat Auburn. Just by chance I went out the wrong doors and could not get back in so I had to walk around to the parking lot. came across the bus and the team was standing outside. Got all the autographs including Coach. So does anyone think he will come back to see more games or the University potentially re-naming the floor after him.

landrus13 Posted July 7, 2020 Report Share Posted July 7, 2020 This video brought to me to tears. Just like I did the day he walked back into AH. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billingsley99 Posted July 7, 2020 Report Share Posted July 7, 2020 For all of the faults the man had you can tell just how.much he loved his guys and they love him. People dont like hearing it but I still say Bob Knight is Indiana basketball. I have traveled all over this country wearing IU gear and almost every time someone says something about Coach Knight. It's never a player, another coach or the Kelley school of business or any other team. Its always Bobby Knight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Proud2BAHoosier Posted July 7, 2020 Report Share Posted July 7, 2020 It was bittersweet for me. It was great to see The General back where he belonged. Also great to see his fire trying to get the team pumped to beat Perdont. But it sure pi$$ed me off to see the team come out with absolutely no fire......

mrflynn03 Posted July 8, 2020 Report Share Posted July 8, 2020 I went to severel of his basketball camps back in the mid 90's. I'm not saying I knew him well but did spend some time around him. It was a bit sad to see the RMK I knew be diminished, but it felt good to see him where he belongs, home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From 1992 to 2005 I talked to coach on a very regular basis. Been 15 years and I really miss talking with him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
