Texas Tech fires Pat Knight

[LT Profits]

Effective after Big 12 tournament. This might make Tech a prime fade in first round vs. Missouri.

[HoulihansTX]

They were fade material B4 this.

And let me say about time. Getting Grandfathered into a head coaching job, in a major conference is BS.

We will bever see him again, unless he wants to work his way up the ladder.

[BiffTFinancial]

why does TT announce this now, i wonder? couldn't wait 3 days? maybe Knight requested clarity about his future now and they gave it to him.

[jjgold]

surprised

Bobby is going to be pissed

[EaglesPhan36]

Probably asked them to announce it now with the faint hope that it would inspire the team to play well in the tournament. Too bad Patty, that don't help when you can't coach.

Bob knight is probably going to throw a chair into the AD's office.

Very hard to win in Lubbock...as Bobby found out...

I believe Sidney Lowe will be available to take over if Tech wants him

he made lemonade with lemons, 4 tourney appearances and a sweet 16 fwiw.

[bleek88]

He was fired before his tenure began. Sad what his father did.

[dherd]

what took so long, only reason he got the job in the first place is daddy gave it to him.
bobby has enough money for both of them.

[Wreckloose]

If they get Gillispie they could probably have Bob Knight tenure levels of success.

[Cannon]

Bobby will go and kick everyones ass now.

[jjgold]

I wonder if he will coach again??

I say just an assistant's job?
