Am I a bad person if I take extreme pleasure in the fact that Sampson may finally get what he deserves?
Bobby Knight showed up on ESPN2 tonight after saying he does not go to games any more on Letterman. Bet he goes back to Indiana? Alford?
Another good article on the subject:
Goodbye to Sampson, IU's good name :: CHICAGO SUN-TIMES :: Greg Couch
I hear Jim Harrick might be available... Boy how things have turned in Bloomington. They fire one of the greatest coaches of all time, replace him with a very classy guy but run him out because he is too nice and the 'anti' Knight... Then the replace him with a guys who is already in trouble.... Good moves, Miles Brand would be proud...
If Bob went back... holy cow... AWESOME.
If that makes you a bad person, then I am too! This is great news! FU Kelvin Sampson, you deserve it buddy.Quote:

Indiana knew he was dirty when the hired him so they should have to face restrictions as well. Any time a schools hire a dirty coach that has been in trouble in the past they should get in big trouble as well as the coach.
Dont feel sorry for Sampson he will get a job with ESPN just like all the other dirty coaches.
Bobby Knight sure timed his exit well.
Rumor has it that Eddie Sutton took the USF job in case his boy needs to springboard to USF next year. Boone Pickens is not a Sutton Supporter.
I hope IU hires Lickliter.
Why Friday? Why not Thursday or today?
I suspect IU needs a day to get their ducks in a row and their lawyers need a day to rack up some billable hours.Quote:

As much as I'd like to see it happen, they're not going to hire Lickliter.
Delilah will cut Sampson's hair on Friday...he will have to become a Westwood One broadcaster.
