Bobby Knight famous for both victories and outbursts, dies at 83


Here's a Bobby Knight story. I heard it so take it as real or apocryphal.

Bobby, after retirement, loved to bass fish and he found that the lakes near Voyageurs National Park had great bass fishing.

One day he stops into the local cafe where a Minnesota hall of fame high school coach who won over 500 games was sitting with friends. They recognize Bobby and start talking. Bobby asks the coach about his career and the coach tells him he took 3 teams down to the State tournament. Bobby asks him how many championships he won. The coach says, "Well, none." Bobby thinks for a moment and then, with a wry smile on his face, says "Well then, I guess you ain't done shit!" He gets up, pays for his bill and goes off fishing.

God bless Bobby Knight. 😏
Always the gentleman.
