I could watch Bobby Knights teams play ball anytime. Always fun basketball to watch, even after he took the Texas Tech job.
It makes me sad to see JoePa go out like this, but he failed to do what was right. It might have been a real scandal for the program back in the day, but it would not have been nearly as damaging as it is currently. The karmic interest to be paid for his silence has increased many fold over the years.
