00:00They asked him about paying players 30 years ago and he's long dead and gone now.
00:08My friend Bob Knight, who I looked up to like no other, scared to death of him, but I looked
00:13up to him.
00:14He said about paying players, he said, well, I'll tell you Al, I got no problem at all
00:21giving a kid a stipend of a couple of hundred bucks a week considering how much God damn
00:27money they make all these other sports that don't make any money.
00:31All that they have in NCAA sports is football and basketball, making all the money for all
00:37the other sports to exist.
00:39Some of these kids deserve to be able to go out and have some money and take their girlfriend
00:43out for a slice of pizza.
00:45We'll give them a couple of hundred bucks a week, I don't have a problem with that.
00:48Can you imagine this guy rolling in his grave and paying some kid to play basketball, $4
00:56million at BYU?
00:57I mean, the NCAA is an abortion.
01:01What they have done to college athletics, I told you on this show years ago, there's
01:06not one kid that goes to class, not one, in football or basketball, there's not one kid
01:11that goes to class.
01:12I want to see him.
01:13I want to watch him do it.
01:14I want to watch film of him sitting in class at college somewhere.
01:19I want to see it.
01:21Oh, he's an All-American Scholar, he's got a 3.9 GPA, bullshack.
01:32No one goes to class, everyone gets paid like they're a professional, they've already ruined
01:37college sports, and Bobby Knight was right about all of it.
01:4230 years ago, he was ahead of his time.
01:46He was smarter than Patton.
01:48You can quote me on that, I don't care what anybody thinks of me.
01:52He is not wrong about what has happened with college sports, there's no question about
01:58that.
01:59And that's what's wrong with the NBA.
02:00It is, yes, and the threes with the NBA he's right about too, but obviously this college
02:05sports thing, and I'm sure you talked about Laranega yesterday, and I got a clip of him
02:12I got the clip later where he's just like, we went to the Final Four, and nine of my
02:17kids went in the transfer portal, you've got to be kidding me.
02:24What goes on around here?
02:26It's so true, what happens with college sports now, it's out of control.
