I asked if he ordsprog

I asked if he knew who [Mississippi poet] Etheridge Knight was. He said no, and I told him until you do, I'm not talking to you. I didn't want IQ to think he was doing his craft in a vacuum. He came back to me, saying, 'I can't believe this!' A short time later, he saluted [Knight] with a poetry night here.

I was so pleased we won, because it was the only time I think we were able to win on senior night. At the same time, anytime you can beat a coach Knight team, there's always an added sense of pleasure, because you're competing against and beating the best of all-time. I think you get more satisfaction out of it, because of how successful Knight's been and all the games he's won.

Son, my name isn't Knight to you, it's coach Knight or it's Mr. Knight. I don't call people by their last name and neither should you.

[March 21, pot shot: What ex-Indiana coach Bob Knight took at current Hoosiers head man Mike Davis, his former assistant, during a radio interview.] The guy that's coaching there is a guy, ... that I told Pat [Knight, his assistant] we were going to replace at the end of the [2001] season.

[Knight made] a terrific play, ... They had a cover-2 [defense]. I was hoping [Knight] bit on it. I had my hands up and I thought I was going to catch it, but he just tipped it. I just know we've got to keep pushing. One thing I see [on this team] is a lot of guys who don't give up. We just have to keep our heads up and we'll be all right.

What made everyone jealous, including UCLA and USC, was the Athenaeum, [which] brought world figure speakers, I was the official host, 'The Valley Knight,' ... I dressed like a knight and escorted the speakers to the podium.

I don't know who he was but he was my knight in shining armour. He wasn't interested in superficial connections, seeking genuine rapport, which made him pe𝑥y. I was ready to quit and walk back to the finish. I told him that I loved him.

They were there the night after the incident, ... They were even there last night when police took photographs. The physical evidence just doesn't match with what coach Knight said.

My turn-around time is short. Nine out of 10 times, you'll get your vacuum back the next day. You'll not be without your vacuum for a week.

I'm a failed poet. Maybe every novelist wants to write poetry first, finds he can't and then tries the short story which is the most demanding form after poetry. And failing at that, only then does he take up novel writing.

I'm not a big sports fan. I didn't even go to games until Knight came.

Now he's back in the same situation and he wants to be a London Knight.

If you are ambitious of climbing up to the difficult, and in a manner inaccessible, summit of the Temple of Fame, your surest way is to leave on one hand the narrow path of Poetry, and follow the narrower track of Knight-Errantry, which in a trice may raise you to an imperial throne.

Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra (1547-1616)

I didn't miss any games, but Coach (Bobby) Knight came out and spent three days with my family in Chicago when my dad passed away. I came back and played and it was good therapy for me. Having a basketball family and a coach who understood and actually became like a father figure for that time was comforting to me, and I'm sure that will be comforting to Coleman.

Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.
