We Now Take You to the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency

[J.R. Ewing]

This is just bizarre and pathetic.

Even before he started cursing from the podium at a U.S. spy agency, Bobby Knight was an unorthodox choice to deliver a lecture on leadership.
Employees at the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA) complained in advance about their boss’s decision to invite the Hall of Fame basketball coach to give a speech at their headquarters, given his history of bullying players, demeaning women and throwing furniture. But that was nothing compared with the troubles triggered by Knight’s July 10, 2015, visit to the agency at Fort Belvoir, Va., near Washington.
Four women who worked at the spy agency alleged that Knight had groped or touched them inappropriately in brief encounters before and after his speech, according to investigative documents and interviews with more than a dozen NGA officials.

More evidence to the narrative that Bobby Night's behavior wasn't intense and focused; it just lacked impulse control.

Dude sure could coach, though.

Amen! July 10, 2015? Really? ... is there a "bitch by end date" on this kind of stuff? And no, I am not at war against women.

 

[goalline]

I'm starting to think Knight's Presidential material.

Don't care. **** him. I'm willing to accept that these guys aren't members of the church choir, but he's just a first class asshole.

 

[L Buff]

No wonder he was an ardent Trumpist.

Well played, although an alliteration reference would have scored a 10/10, with the East German judge scoring a 4/10.....

I'm an engineer, dammit. I don't know nothing about alliteration. Is that what happens when you draw up a trick play to throw garbage on the ground?
