One thing that I've never heard questioned is his passion for the game and his players. His personality and temper and judgement come into question all of the time but never his dedication to his teams. The players that Knight gets these days are guys that know what comes with the territory when they sign up to attend Texas Tech. The parents that stand behind their kids' decisions know also. These are guys that are looking for that disciple and they get it from Knight. I don't know any facts but I know that Knight's graduation record has always been pretty high among his division one counterparts and especially so in comparison to those of other "major" programs. I know that if I had a son, I would have no problem sending him to Knight. None.

was Knight one of the original 12 disciples or is he the unspoken 13th one we never read about in the Bible?
