Knight to U of Indiana Hall of Fame


Maybe Indiana and Bobby Knight have kissed and made up. It seems as though Mr. Knight is going to be inducted into the University of Indiana's Hall of Fame. Knight, who won a couple of National Championships at IU, didn't exactly leave the school on the best of terms. Over the past several years, he has taken more than a few shots at the school and the administration and to the school's credit, they have stayed pretty quiet. The real fun will be to see if he actually shows up to receive the honor.

The ceremony will take place November 6th and Knight is expected to be honored along with seven others. The move is seen as being somewhat of an olive branch to the "Always Volatile One" and it should be interesting to see how it plays out. Knight still remains immensely popular in the Hoosier state and no doubt should he decide to show, it will be one hell of a day or weekend to remember.

And to wrap this up, we've posted it before and we'll post it again, we of course are talking about the legendary Chair Throwing incident....Courtesy: You Tube
