University president Myles Brand announced the dismissal of Hall of Fame coach Bob Knight after a series of conduct violations. Knight, 59, faced a zero tolerance policy breach for grabbing Kent Harvey by the arm to lecture him, and a pattern of volatile behavior, including outbursts and snubs at IU functions. The decision ends Knight’s 30-year era with the Hoosiers and follows inquiries into past incidents, including a 1997 practice choking allegation.
