Coach Bob Knight

Legendary Coach Bob Knight will appear on the Wagon Wheel Theatre stage Saturday, April 14th.  Knight is beloved in Hoosier country, but has become one of the most popular sports figures nationally with his all-time wins record surpassed in November by longtime friend and colleague, and Duke Coach, Mike Krzyzewski.

Currently, Coach Knight is a broadcast analyst for ESPN and is best known as one of the greatest basketball coaches of all-time and the biggest name in Indiana sports history.  As the head coach of the Hoosiers, Knight won over 73 percent of his games in 29 years at Indiana, while capturing 3 National Titles, 11 Big Ten Championships, and a gold medal as the coach of the 1984 basketball Olympic team.

At times Bob Knight has been polarizing, which keeps him in high demand as a public speaker.  One thing is for sure, Coach Knight is his own man, one who represents high principles, expectations and demands for his players, his coaching staff and, most of all, himself. However, he is foremost an educator. His ability to teach young men the game of basketball and the game of life is one of his most noted characteristics.  Knight will speak about his illustrious career on and off the court with stories that are sure to entertain.
