Never ever saw Knight look so absolutely mortified than his listening to Thomas essentially undress him in front of a room full of boosters. You definitely saved the best for last. Suffice it say no love lost between Knight and Thomas.
Man I played football for a coach that was a combination of Bob knight and woody Hays and when I finished playing for him and wound see him often at games and the more I seen him, the more I loved him damn near like a father. I would have enjoyed playing for Coach Knight real old school man
That's a cool story, I've always said these college coaches aren't just coaches they're father figures, we do need more of Bob knight type styles nowadays@@lutherodaniels3799
John Feinstein covers this incident in "Season on the Brink." Knight was horrified, and it chilled his relationship with Thomas for some time. Looking at the tape, though, I think Thomas had 'em at "fuck you," and probably shoulda stopped there.
6:00 I need a professional lip reader to tell me what Coach Knight was saying at this part of the video. It almost looked like he was mouthing Isiah‘s words as he spoke them!
PREPARE TO WIN.... told you how to win before the game even was played.... henceforth was on the playe, where I. Thomas and others became legends due to glueing to that conviction..... it's long gone now in 2024 you can't coach that way anymore...
It’s instructive that Indiana’s greatest player, Isiah Thomas, pointedly mentioned here that he was already a pretty good ball player before college, and declined to give Knight any credit except for teaching him abusive and demeaning language.
Hardly, Todd.....he was very accomplished, studied, disciplined (not a rogue), went back and not only got his degrees but a doctorate. Successful businessman, Coached at the highest level, GM, consultant and for some of the toughest organizations.
Between Momma Mary Thomas, His Upbringing and Coach Knight is the reason Isiah Lord Thomas III the Fortitude to Defeat Magic, Michael Jordan and Larry LEGEND teams = GOAT KILLER ZEKE
Bruh this was like long ago and u commenting on his cussing and his personality as a coach lmao. Not sure if you knew but that’s how he was as a coach. Intense and tough love.
Arrogant foul mouth individual. I would not want my son playing for this type of individual. I do not care how many games his team won or championships. He was not a class act and no John Wooden or Dean Smith. RIP just the same I suppose.
Isiah is a liar, cheat, morally corrupt. Didn't have a clue The fun part is Michael Jordan Didn't want him any where near The Dream Team. That's all we need to know. Even Coach Knight has said Michael Jordan is The Greatest Basketball Player Ever.
A little glimpse into the personality of Isiah Thomas. If he signs off after fuck you then it’s a clip for the ages. Even Knight was laughing. But he kept going and seconds later it’s the Isiah Thomas we all knew as a pro.
Refreshing to hear reporters put in their place
The world would be a better place if everyone played for a Bobby Knight.
Is it ok for him to choke your son or nephew if he played on Knight’s team?
@@EFunkRock Yes.

Knight showed the world how to deal with the media.
Yes I agree the media is a total joke in today’s society
God, the world needs more coach Knights/discipline

Love Bobby Knight
and the end of this video, the look Knight gave Thomas... omg... i think Thomas wanted to go hide lol
Knight didn't take it well at all, he loved to fish it out, he was very thin skinned

@BigDanWestmont. Thomas clearly harbored a lot of resentment toward Knight. He siezed the moment to not only stick the knife in, but twist and slice.
@@BigDanWestmont It was well known that Thomas hated Knight so it was taking a chance by giving Thomas a live mic in the presence of Knight.

Bob Knight demanded discipline from everyone except his own behavior. Totally undisciplined.
You tell em snowflake! You voted for Biden, didn't you?
He earned his spot…Fuck off.
The best there was is or ever will be!!! RIP Coach 😢🙏💔
Wrong
@@kirkrehm9972name a coach who got more out of the least amount of talent.

Generation kids could never play ball for Bob knight one of the greats in basketball
Knight acted like an a-hole. Nothing redeeming about that type of boorish behavior.
RIP Coach Knight - Fiesty as ever
It’s instructive that Indiana’s greatest player, Isiah Thomas, pointedly mentioned here that he was already a pretty good ball player before college, and declined to give Knight any credit except for teaching him abusive and demeaning language.
Knight at close to his worst.
Classic Bully
Knight was Great. Hawkeye fan here. Isiah was a great player. But, a Reprobate in every aspect of his life.
Huh? Seriously?
Hardly, Todd.....he was very accomplished, studied, disciplined (not a rogue), went back and not only got his degrees but a doctorate. Successful businessman, Coached at the highest level, GM, consultant and for some of the toughest organizations.
Knight should have been Trumps press secretary
mean control guy.
Has there ever been anyone more self-centered?
how do these videos propose self-centeredness?
@:038 funniest part.

@erickgross984. Maybe. Could also be Thomas helped Knight more than the other way around. We will never know.
And I threw a little Isaiah to there too…
Meh, sorry....the guy had a ton of issues....FACTS!
Hope he repented after using the lords name in vain
Yeah. Woody Hayes was such a saint. Jackass. I’m embarrassed to be a buckeyes fan because of you.
Don't think so.!
@@jayrperkins3687 who knows liked his discipline as a coach to his players but his vulgarity was just horrible
@@jayrperkins3687 you can still be a firm discipline coach and not use the language that he did in press conferences
Bruh this was like long ago and u commenting on his cussing and his personality as a coach lmao. Not sure if you knew but that’s how he was as a coach. Intense and tough love.
If you hate Bob Knight…You Never had a man in your life.
Did ANYONE ever stand up to this bully?
Nope one of his players tried and got chocked by him lol 😂
He never talked that way to anyone who would stand up to him
Arrogant foul mouth individual. I would not want my son playing for this type of individual. I do not care how many games his team won or championships. He was not a class act and no John Wooden or Dean Smith. RIP just the same I suppose.
agreed well said
Boo hoo
His language is a joke
The joke is you went to Ohio State. Wait. You probably didn’t. Couldn’t get in and went to some JUCO in Dayton
@@toreckman8899 nope try again Kent State bro
@@buckeyevinnie8456 makes sense. Bruh
Embarrassing and cringe
Don’t be so hard on yourself.
@@toreckman8899 I think he was referring to Bobby.
@@rtv6284 what insight. You must be from the fuuuture.

Isah was a racist
Ever heard Bobby Knight talk?
Wait to be ignorant. Liar and cheat? Lol
@@rtv6284 no but I’ve read what you’ve written.
So what? Isiah is definitely one of the greatest to ever play
Why was Knight never disciplined for his atrocious behavior??? Oh, he won National Titles for Indiana. So that makes everything okay, right??
Go whine to mommy ya big baby
A little glimpse into the personality of Isiah Thomas. If he signs off after fuck you then it’s a clip for the ages. Even Knight was laughing. But he kept going and seconds later it’s the Isiah Thomas we all knew as a pro.
And Knight's reaction was telling too, he could dish it out, but couldn't take it. A thin skinned baby
From 5:33 on is about as cringy as it gets. LOL!
