People often form opinions of people because of what they see of them in the media. Hunting turkeys once in south Alabama with the late Bobby Knight, it gave me yet another example of those assumptions sometimes just don't hold up to be true.
For the one time Michael Bolton met Indiana great Bobby Knight on a turkey hunt, he found him to be nothing like the man he was on the basketball court. It seems like someone who I have hunted or fished with over the past 40 years, now, they’re passing away every week or so. Most recently it was former Indiana basketball coach Bobby Knight, and it brought back an old memory.
I was surprised years ago when Humminbird PR director Larry Colombo called me to tell me he had a story for me. He explained he and Knight were longtime friends and said Knight was coming to Alabama to turkey hunt. He wanted to know if I wanted to tag along and do a story.
