So for those fans still holding out hope that Bob Knight will one day walk into Assembly Hall, give it up.

Friday night, Showtime will air a documentary on the 1976 Indiana Hoosiers, college basketball's last undefeated team.

Friday morning, the man who coached that iconic '76 team went on "The Dan Patrick Show" to discuss that season. But what caught most people's attention were Knight's comments regarding why he won't return to Assembly Hall and what he thinks of the administration that fired him.

the man who fired him died of cancer a few years ago.

Had to be a Deplorable.

If Knight had any self-reflective qualities, he'd know that his firing from Indiana was richly deserved and long overdue. For HIM to still be bitter about it shows what a scumbag he is.

Classy guy. He should coach at Baylor.
