“‘You can miss where you’re casting. You just pick it up and cast it again,’ he said. ‘You never know if a kid is going to do what you’ve told him to do and, actually, I’ve had flies that have reacted a lot better to my instructions over the years than a lot of the players I’ve had, so maybe I’m better at fly-fishing than coaching.'” Perhaps because screaming at flies doesn’t guarantee a good drift.
Bobby Knight will be a featured studio analyst during college basketball’s March Madness broadcasts, as noted by Nancy Marrapese-Burrell on Boston.com.
