the ideal situation for everyone is for him to find another job.

We'd get more at that than to watch the games. The students might even show up.

So let me get this straight. HOF coach Bobby Knight, who coached at one of the premiere programs in all of college basketball, won 3 national titles, was named Big 10 coach of the year 5 times, national coach of the year 4 times and coached the USA to an Olympic gold medal is going to come to Memphis and serve as an assistant under Josh Pastner?

This gets my nomination as the most idiotic post in the history of this board. Congratulations!

He didn't say who was discussing it. Like I pointed out, it might be being discussed by fine gentlemen at a watering hole.

I like this idea but I don't think he is needed. Josh is a great bench coach and team general. I'm not sure what Bobby Knight would bring to the table this late in the game. Josh is a much better coach at this point in time than Knight.

SUPPORT JOSH PASTNER

If this is truly being considered and Pastner knows anything about it, I think the purpose of it might be for reasons other than actually making it happen.

hmmm.....interesting analysis
