BIO: Robert Montgomery Knight is an American former basketball coach. Knight won 902 NCAA Division I men's college basketball games, a record at the time of his retirement. He is best known as the head coach of the Indiana Hoosiers from 1971 to 2000. He also coached at Texas Tech (2001–2008) and at Army (1965–1971). He retired partway through the 2007–2008 season and was replaced by his son Pat Knight at Texas Tech. Knight remains "the object of near fanatical devotion" from many of his former players and Indiana fans. In 2008, Knight joined ESPN as a men's college basketball studio analyst during Championship Week and for coverage of the NCAA Tournament. He continued covering college basketball for ESPN through the 2014–15 season. Knight was inducted into the Basketball Hall of Fame in 1991 and the College Basketball Hall of Fame in 2006.
