LUBBOCK, Texas (AP) - Bob Knight won't be making any more history in 2006. Having started this season third on the men's Division I wins list, Knight was ready to take over the top spot all by his sweater-wearing self Thursday night except his Texas Tech Red Raiders hardly gave him a chance. Tech got behind early and never recovered, losing 74-66 to UNLV and leaving Knight tied with Dean Smith at 879 career wins.
His next chance for the milestone comes on New Year's Day. Considering how much Knight detests the hoopla, there's no doubt his resolution for 2007 is to get this over with.
"I haven't been interested in it from Day 1," Knight said. "All I'm interested in is playing well. We've got a lot of work to do."
