DUNCANVILLE, Texas (AP) - Bob Knight didn't miss a chance to take a shot at 1 of his favorite targets - the NCAA.
Knight, the winningest Division I men's basketball coach, is putting his name on a Dallas-area basketball and volleyball venture. During Tuesday's unveiling of the plan for Bob Knight's Fieldhouse, he made clear the NCAA won't share the marquee.
Responding to a question, Knight said "the roof would leak, there would be no locks on the doors and the court would only have one basket" if the NCAA was involved.
Six basketball courts that convert into 10 volleyball courts will be housed in a former ice skating facility run by the NHL's Dallas Stars in suburban Duncanville.
