A year ago, legendary American men’s college basketball coach Bob Knight passed away. Member Gary Eiber had the wonderful experience of playing for him in both high school and college. He will review Knight';s history from a player's view of a mentor, showing the intelligent and humane side of a disciplinarian, who was often misrepresented by the press and his detractors. His talk will be sprinkled with humorous incidents as well as Gary's personal story and recent close connections.
The Akron Torch Club is an organization of professionals and professionally minded people who meet to dine, then listen to and discuss a talk. Torch Club meets the fourth Wednesday of most months at 6 p.m., costs $38 and is open to guests.
Reservations are required. Call Joe Huber, 330-929-3959, by the Friday before the event.
