Knight and Tech begin the season...

without their best player.

Texas Tech G Jackson dismissed from team - espn.com

Good for Coach Knight to maintain his high academic standards. I still don't understand how a smart kid with every possible advantage decides to just throw it all away.

Record looms as Knight, team look to rebound from sour season - espn.com
"Usually when you've got players coming back that have played,
they're probably looking at playing a whole lot," Knight said.
"Well, these guys aren't, because we've got new kids.

"We were not going in a good direction and those guys that
played last year are going to have to change the direction that
they were going in to play."
What great quotes... you don't earn playing time by getting older.
