When it got to where his bombs that I do not agree with but his way of teaching kids to have class was great. RTR!
Title: Re: Bob Knight on TV Post by: XBAMA on March 06, 2011, 04:07:35 PM I can't say I was ever a big fan of Bobby and figured he was a little over the top for me .
I gained a new respect of him last year after he visited Venice , La. to go fishing . one of my best friends is a guide in Venice and Bobby booked a trip with him so immediately we started thinking of ways to screw with him we decided on a metal folding chair on the bow of the boat should work but he laughed it off and actually was pretty cool about it . I'll say this about Bobby , the guy is a machine and can fish with some of the best tournament anglers out there . started fishing early and the guy only wanted to fish with a fly rod and he did , ALL DAY LONG ! he was catching 30 to 40 lb. redfish on the fly rod one after the other and was tireless . he didn't want to leave but the sun was going down and he had to or I believe he would have fished all night . I was impressed with his ability and if he coaches the way he fishes I see why he is very good at it . he autographed basketballs and stuff for the kids and was really a pleasure to be around . I never dreamed this basketball coach would be as hard core as he was , great guy really ... |
