Pat Knight fired

Pat Knight has been fired as the Texas Tech men's basketball coach after 3 seasons. Texas Tech President Guy Bailey stated that "it was time to make a change within our men’s basketball program”. Tech was 13-18 overall this season and 5-11 in Big 12 play. Knight will coach the team in the Big 12 tournament. Stay tuned for discussion about who the next Texas Tech men's basketball coach should be. As a side note, new Athletic Director Kirby Hocutt was told about this decision by Guy Bailey. Hocutt really has a chance to make a name for himself by hiring the right guy to take over.
