Bobby Knight returns to XM Satellite Radio this week for part two of the interview conducted by fellow Hall of Famer Mike Krzyzewski on his show “Basketball and Beyond with Coach K” on XM Sports Nation (ch 144).
The always-quotable Bobby Knight had this to say during one of their exchanges:
Coach K: You’ve put over forty years into our game. How do you view the game right now? What things would you change on the court, for the game?
Bobby Knight: Officials should not be allowed in college to work more than three games a week. Your kids are tired, and mine are too, if they play three games in a week, and officials work six nights a week, and I think that’s really an abortion to the game of basketball. It hurts the officials, and when the officials are tired, they hurt the game. I think it could be changed easily. You’re either going to work three games a week, or you can go to the NBA, or the NJCAA, or the NAAIA, or you can work Kroger’s against the A&P in the city league.
"Basketball and Beyond with Coach K” airs on XM Sports Nation - Wednesdays at 2pm ET, with replays airing that evening, Thursday, Saturday, and Sunday.
