Bob Knight and John Thompson Join Coach K on XM Show
3/23/2010 3:00:00 PM | Men's Basketball
NEW YORK – Legendary college basketball coaches Bob Knight and John Thompson Jr. will sit down for in-depth one-on-one interviews with Duke Men's Basketball Coach Mike Krzyzewski on the next edition of Krzyzewski's SIRIUS XM Radio show Basketball and Beyond with Coach K. The weekly program airs tomorrow, March 24 (8:00 pm ET), on Mad Dog Radio, SIRIUS channel 123 and XM channel 144.
The three Hall of Fame coaches, who together have seven National Championships, 2362 NCAA Division I victories and more than 100 years of head coaching experience, will discuss this year's tournament and the past, present and future of college basketball.
In a head coaching career that spanned five decades, Bob Knight won 902 NCAA Division I men's college basketball games, more than any other Division I head coach. From 1971 to 2000, he coached the Indiana Hoosiers to three National Championships, five Final Fours and 11 Big Ten Conference Championships.
Coach K, whose #1 seeded Duke Blue Devils are set to face Purdue in the South Regional Semifinals on Friday in Houston, has won 864 NCAA Division I games over 35 years as a head coach. He has led the Blue Devils to three NCAA Championships, 10 Final Fours and 12 ACC Tournament championships.
Coach K's and Coach Knight's careers have been intertwined since Krzyzewski played for Knight at the U.S. Military Academy in the late 1960s. Coach K's first job in college basketball came when he was offered a graduate assistant position by Knight at the University of Indiana and, like Knight, Krzyzewski's first head coaching job was at West Point. Both men coached the USA Men's Basketball Team to gold medal victories, Knight in the 1984 Games in Los Angeles and Krzyzewski at the 2008 Games in Beijing, and both have been enshrined in the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame, Knight in 1991 and Krzyzewski in 2001.
John Thompson Jr. won 596 games over 27 seasons as the head coach of the Georgetown Hoyas, who he led to the 1984 National Title, three Finals Fours and six Big East Tournament Championships. He was inducted into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame in 1999.
"Basketball and Beyond with Coach K" is available to listeners nationwide Wednesday nights at 8:00 pm ET exclusively on Mad Dog Radio, SIRIUS channel 123 and XM channel 144.
Each week, the show features discussions on a wide array of topical issues, covering the state of college basketball and showcasing Krzyzewski's personal perspective on principles for life on and off the court, plus interviews with a variety of special guests, including business leaders, entertainers, coaches and athletes.
