Bobby Knight!

FWIW- The Black Knights are the United States Military Academy’s mascot.

Army Black Knights[edit]
After graduation in 1962, Knight coached junior varsity basketball at Cuyahoga Falls High School in Ohio for one year.[11] Knight then enlisted in the United States Army and accepted an assistant coaching position with the Army Black Knights in 1963, where, two years later, he was named head coach at the relatively young age of 24. In six seasons at West Point, Knight won 102 games, with his first as a head coach coming against Worcester Polytechnic Institute. One of his players was Mike Krzyzewski, who later served as his assistant before becoming a Hall of Fame head coach at Duke. Mike Silliman was another of Knight’s players at Army, and Knight was quoted as saying, “Mike Silliman is the best player I have ever coached.”

I served three years active duty with the US Army “Regulars,” so I loves me some Army coach Bobby Knight.
