The Nut: He was getting the players attention, it looked far from painful, and it's a high level game (D1 ncaab) Love tap to the lower jaw, open hand, didn't swing through jsut tapped w/ slight force to the guys jaw/cheek. Any other coach and it would be yesterdays news, I bet you could find video of alot of the D1 coaches doing the same thing |

It's only an issue because it's Bob Knight. |

At one point in the game, Everett was so rattled that he collapsed to the ground in the pocket merely in anticipation of yet another sack, even though the 49ers' defensive players actually had not yet reached him — a play thereafter known as Everett's "phantom sack". Everett thereafter tended to shy away from hits, and later acknowledged that his confidence was never fully restored. |

Jim Rome should be put in a bubble and released in the middle of Iraq. We'll then see what a big man he. |

Knight is a supremely intelligent man who is extremely knowledgeable in the sport from past experiences. I would jsut shut up and listen to him.
