I have wondered in what context he said that as well, blackcat. Perhaps

it was during one of those questioning periods after he'd thrown a chair?  Or maybe right around the time he was fired at Indiana?  I'm sure it was directed at a journalist...

Good point, leaderspeaker. With Bobby Knight, a bit of embellishment

would be needed to pen an overly flattering read...

No problem if you love the pen but does the pen love you?

Nah, he'll use a ghost writer, like most of them do, not realizing he

lends creedence to literature's mastery over all -- it tells the story of greater things done...

Doesn't he know that after one does the greater things he comes back to writing to tell about doing the greater things.  He probably will also.
