March 27, 200917 yr Bring in Bob Knight for 5-6 years, as he'll bring Travis Ford with him as an assistant, then after 6 years, Ford takes over and everyone's happy... Thoughts?
March 27, 200917 yr Please no, I have head the worse 2 months a working man could have, Don't put me through anymore suffering..
March 27, 200917 yr Ford would not come from Okla. State as head coach to be an assistant under Knight in my opinion.
March 27, 200917 yr WOW I like half of that plan.......the first half. Knight would be great until the talent ran out...maybe 3-4 years not 5-6. But please no TRAVIS FORD!!!!!!!
March 27, 200917 yr I have never said this before, but I believe this proves Dick Vitale hates UK!:lol::lol:
March 27, 200917 yr Vitale was not being completely serious when he said that. He was basically just saying Knight could handle the pressure of the UK fan base. Vitale actually said there are only two coaches that could handle the UK job - John Calipari and Rick Barnes. Makes sense to me.
March 27, 200917 yr I have never said this before, but I believe this proves Dick Vitale hates UK!:lol::lol: I agree. He's offically off UK's bandwagon.....until they start winning again.
March 27, 200917 yr Digger Phelps said the best thing in the segment with him and Dicky V and that is that Pitino spoiled UK fans. That is very true and the reason we are where we are today.
March 27, 200917 yr I think Knight would be good at UK, he's the best coach in the history of college basketball IMO. We all know what he did at IU, but his time at Texas Tech is impressive as wel, he took a bottom dweller in the Big 12 to the Sweet Sixteen one year, took them to the Dance four times and reached the NIT Semifinals in 2003. Knight would be a good choice, but I doubt Barnhardt would go for it and I don't think Knight would go for it either.

If our players can not handle Billy Gillispie, they certainly can not take Bobby Knight. I agree that there is not another person breathing air who can teach basketball better than Knight. It would never work out, and we probably wouldn't sign any top-notch recruits, but I wouldn't mind.
