The basketball world mourns the loss of a coaching icon as Bob Knight, the illustrious head coach known for his triumphant tenure at Indiana University, passed away at the age of 81. The announcement was made through a statement released by his family on Wednesday evening, confirming his peaceful passing at his home in Bloomington, surrounded by loved ones. Fondly referred to as "The General" for his commanding demeanor resembling that of a drill instructor, Knight carved a legacy in college basketball history. He held the title for the all-time NCAA leader in wins until his retirement in 2008, a record later surpassed by his protégé, Mike Krzyzewski. Cowboy Channel Plus
