I want my record and I want it NOW!

Bob Knight is crying in the comforts of his own home. He was almost guaranteed to break Dean Smith's all-time winningest coach record this year. He went to great extends by "firing" half of his team from last year and bringing a lot of new players. All that was well. But now he has to do it without his star guard Jarrius Jackson. Ouch!!!

Speaking of Bob Knight, there was apparently a staged interview with him and Aaron Bruce of Baylor when Baylor gave Aaron Bruce a camera to interview people at the Big 12 Media Day. He interviewed Bob Knight who was wearing a green sweater and a gold shirt underneath, typically associated with Baylor colors. Bob Knight was very calm, very mild-mannered and very subdued during the interview and he didn't even flinch when Aaron Bruce dared to touch (!!!) the General on the shoulder (the expectation would be for Bob Knight to grab him by the throat *cough* Neil *cough*). Knight complimented Aaron Bruce by saying that he likes the way he plays the game. On a totally unrelated note Rush Limbaugh cannot find a week's worth of horse tranquilizers ;-)

This was broadcast a couple of weeks ago on Baylor Inside Sports, a weekly 30-minute magazine covering Baylor sports. This is usually available on Fox College Sports, regional FSNs and perhaps CSTV.

Thank you for reading my blog :-)

I saw the interview on TV but I do not know if it is available online.

If you haven't checked, some of the Baylor websites may have it such as http://baylorbears.cstv.com/ or some of the Baylor fan message boards may know where to find it. There is a discussion of it here: http://www.baylorfans.com/forums/showthread.php?goto=lastpost&t=112044
