Bobby Knight, while always beloved because of being a buckeye alum, has become even more respected in buckeye nation's (and mine) eye with his recent high praise and involvement with the university. He has repeatedly professed on-air about his enjoyment of watching this years Ohio St basketball team and what an amazing job Thad has done with the program (which means a lot because of the lack of love Thad gets nationally, see: B1G Coach of The Year Vote). He also passed down the now infamously "hated" 5-on-4 bball drill to Thad that has obviously tightend up the defense over the last few games. And then there's this.... when the trolls who love and find it easy to be the overwhelming majority and act like the highest-morale pundits that have ever roamed the earth... here's Bobby Knight, sticking up for "Jimmy" Tressel on Mike & Mike in the morning, when it obviously isnt the easy thing to do. Respect in my book for Coach Knight.
Refreshing perspective...

Love it. Knight has always been about rules and integrity, so his opinion on this matter carries weight.
