I have lived part of my life in Indiana, both Evansville and Indianapolis. I have spent time in and around IU. The more you get to know and talk to the old time locals down their the more stories you here about how Coach Knight did this for this guy, gave this business this, helped out this guy etc etc WITHOUT the media ever knowing, the way he wanted it. He has more friends then enemies and I would wager a years salary that at least 75% of his former players upon graduation and when they go into the real world look back and thank Coach Knight for teaching and leading them to be men. Does he have a bad temper, yeah. Is he a good hearted man you bet.
