[quote="elmersalsa"]Can we imagine this guy if he was a fighter? He looks that he is not scared of nobody isn't he?[/quote]He lives in a world where he can be an arrogant bully. Former Seton Hall college coach P. J. Carlessimo (not sure of spelling) was similar but his act didn't work in the pro league. Players in the pros don't have to take shit like college kids (and reporters). Knight wouldn't last one season in the pros. First the players and then the owner would tell him to fornicate off = and that is what he would have to do, with his tail between his legs. But, he isn't stupid. So, he has stayed in the college ranks where he could bully kids.

I would love to have seen him fight. But, same as being a pro coach. He is too smart to do it because he doesn't have the stomache to be around anyone who is in a position to stand up to him - only likes it when he has the power and can be the bully. He is the type of guy who would fold the first time he was hit. Just an effing bully.

He probably would have been a bully like Tyson or Liston?
