Bobby Knight coach for Indiana University mens basketball cuts down the nets to celebrate a big victory. For decades, Knight's legacy has been synonymous with college basketball as he put together successful runs of success with Indiana, Texas Tech and Army – in addition to his fiery demeanor from the bench. He racked up a total of 902 wins as NCAA Division I men's basketball coach, won three national titles with Indiana and made five total trips to the Final Four.
His persona landed him the nickname, "The General," for the way he carried himself as a college hoops coach. If there was ever a single video clip that encapsulated the Hoosier legend's intensity, Knight made headlines in 1985 after he threw a chair across the court, getting him ejected from the game.
