    Texas Tech fires Pat Knight

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

    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.

    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.

    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.

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

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

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