Today's anecdote: If I told this one before, forgive me, but Brian Sloan's on my mind this morning after Jerry's death yesterday...After Indiana lost to Cleveland State in NCAA first round in '86, I went w/Bob Knight to his press conference. When it was over, he went straight...
...to the bus. I went back to locker room, knowing players would be going on spring break and I was staying in Syracuse to cover Navy (David Robinson) for The Post. They'd be gone by the time I got back to Bloomington Sunday night. Security guy says, 'no media.' Knight had left..
orders to close LR. I said, 'I understand you're following orders, but if you get one of the coaches from inside, they'll tell you it's OK.' Guy repeats, 'no media.' I ask again. He says, 'hey pal get going,' and shoves me. I'm about to get really angry when Brian walks out...
...sees what's going on and says to guy "Hey, he's w/ us. Leave him alone." Guy whimpers about 'no media,' and Brian points at him and says, 'he's with US; let him in.' Guy backed down instantly. Never forgot that moment.
