Enlighten me.
How are you possibly capable of pretending that there is no comparison possible between Bobby Knight and Mike Leach. Knight reportedly did all of the following in his career:
  • Punched and choked IU's Sports Information Director
  • Assaulted a police officer in PR
  • Fined for various game outbusts including throwing the chair, hitting a phone on the scorers table, pulling his team off the court duing a exhibition game
  • Told rape victims to "relax and enjoy it" on national TV
  • Kicked his own son (or his chair) during a game
  • Head-butted his own player
  • Choked his own player during a practice
  • Physically threatened his own AD
  • Phsically threatend and threw a potted plant at his own office assistant
  • Threw his own assistant coach out of his chair
  • Grabbed a random student shaking him for saying "what's up knight" or some such
  • Was restrained by police to keep him from going after a heckling fan (while at TT)
  • Fired a shotgun toward a hunter he was arguing with

Mike Leach is far from having the ugly record that Bob Knight had when he was hired at TT.
