Knight vs. Florida | ||||
|
Ex-Indiana Basketball Coach Why he is on the list: Knight's downfall began in May and ended in September. After an investigation of Knight choking player Neil Reed during practice -- caught on videotape -- Knight was put under a zero-tolerance policy. Instead of laying low, Knight bad-mouthed the administration, threw a tantrum and a vase toward a female athletic department official and abstained from school functions. When he grabbed a student's arm and lectured him on being more respectful, the inevitable firing, said to already be in the works, came down.
Why they are on the list: Newsweek had Florida. TV Guide had Florida. Why can't we have Florida? There were no chads, but the BCS computer put Florida State ahead of Miami despite the fact the Hurricanes beat the Seminoles on the field -- giving the Noles a trip to the national title game and the Canes the slight hope of a split title. What was that we heard about computers having no feelings? Oh, wait -- that was presidential politics. |
