On the surface, Monday night's matchup between Indiana and Georgia
didn't look like anything more than another inferior opponent on the No.
1 Hoosiers' schedule.
Then we find out the game is televised on ESPN. And then we find out the announcing team scheduled to call the game: Andy Katz, Dan Shulman and none other than former coach Bobby Knight.
Knight, who famously coached the Hoosiers to three national championships, was fired in 2000 after he failed to meet Indiana president Myles Brand's "zero tolerance" policy following reports that Knight placed his hands on the neck of former player Neil Reed.
This season, Indiana was ranked as the preseason No. 1 team for the first time since 1979-80, a Knight-coached team.
It was only a matter of time before Knight was going to call an Indiana game as part of his media responsibilities with ESPN. Before the game, there were questions about how Indiana fans would treat Knight, if there would be shaken hands between Knight and Indiana figures, and most importantly how the always-critical Knight would commentate on Indiana.
