Ohio native, OSU grad Bob Knight to be commemorated with new bobblehead in National Bobblehead Hall of Fame and Museum
Many know Bob Knight as the volatile, longtime basketball coach of Indiana University. Some also know him as an Ohio native and Ohio State graduate, while others likely know him as that angry guy who threw a chair during a basketball game.
No matter how you know Bob Knight, however, he’s still being commemorated in the National Bobblehead Hall of Fame & Museum (NBHFM) with his very own bobblehead.
This morning, NBHFM released two different Bob Knight bobbleheads in conjunction with Knight Legacy, which was created by Knight’s son Pat to honor his life and career.

One bobblehead features Knight donning his signature red sweater, while the second captures arguably his most (in)famous moment, when he hurled a chair across the court to protest a call during a 1985 basketball game against Purdue.
Both bobbleheads are available for purchase on the museum’s website.
“We’re excited to team up with Knight Legacy to create these bobbleheads celebrating the legendary coach,” National Bobblehead Hall of Fame and Museum co-founder and CEO Phil Sklar said in a press release. “One of the most successful coaches in the history of college basketball, and we think fans will love these new bobbleheads!”
