Bobby Knight Speaks About Oklahoma Debacle

Texas Tech basketball coach Bob Knight said Oklahoma fans now knows how he felt after his team lost a game at OU three years ago when a late-starting clock gave the Sooners extra time to score a game-tying basket.

Knight called for Oklahoma to forfeit its basketball game with Texas Tech on Jan. 20, 2003, when the Sooners won 69-64 in overtime after two clock controversies in the final seconds of regulation. Video replay later showed the game clock started late after the Sooners in-bounded the ball on the game-tying possession.

"Maybe now those people at Oklahoma understand what I was talking about," Knight told The Oklahoman for Thursday's editions.

"Had Oklahoma forfeited that game against us like I suggested, they would have gotten far more positive publicity out of that than if they had gone to the Final Four that year. Now I guess the 'duck' is swimming in the other pond."

This further confirms why SportsRx loves the man, the myth, the legend Bobby Knight. Not only does he tell you the way it is, but he is classic in his postgame interviews and press conferences. That a'way Bobby! That's what we like to see out of you!
