    That's awful. A lady I know is close friends with him and his family. A very much different person outside of coaching and how he might be portrayed in public. Always a nice guy from what I've heard behind the curtain. RIP

    I visited IU in 2008ish.  Not a sign of Bob anywhere in that arena - no pics, no references, nada.  I thought that kind of cleansing was too bad.

    Yeah, it was an ugly breakup. Knight moved back to Bloomington several years ago. He and the university’s relations improved dramatically. He would often attend practices, show up at games, etc..

    Guess I'm in the minority here.
    He was an egotistical hot-tempered child who should've been shut out long, long before he was.  Kind've like the so-called "leaders" we have now.

    I am happy to share the burden we carry for the forum.

    Probably the cause of death? Nobody could toss the chair like IUHMBBC Robert Montgomery Knight.
