Abstract

Bob Knight often remarks he never got over West Point. It's where the legend cut his teeth and formulated his coaching style. It's where he learned he had "to win-gotta win." Jack Isenhour, a player on that first team, examines that formative rookie year of the surefire Hall-of-Famer and gives firsthand descriptions of Knight's departure from Indiana and rebirth at Texas Tech.

Abstract

"A personal glimpse into how the legendary Indiana basketball coach taught and mentored his team."-Jared Jeffries, former Indiana Hoosier and New York Knick What happens when a 6' 9" kid from Lobelville, Tennessee is recruited by legendary basketball coach Bob Knight? Kirk Haston's life was changed forever with just a two-minute phone call. With previously unknown Knight stories, anecdotes, and choice quotes, Haston gives fans an inside look at the notoriously private man and his no-nonsense coaching style. Which past Hoosier basketball greats returned to talk to and practice with current teams? How did Knight mentally challenge his players in practices? How did the players feel when Knight was fired? In this touching and humorous book, Haston shares these answers and more, including his own Hoosier highs-shooting a famous three-point winning shot against number one ranked Michigan State-and lows-losing his mom in a heartbreaking tornado accident. Days of Knight is a book every die-hard IU basketball fan will treasure.
