Bob Knight Channeling Dick Cheney?: Two people said Texas Tech basketball coach Bob Knight or his hunting companion hit them with hunting pellets twice last month. Mary Ann Chumley and James Simpson, who did not require medical treatment or press criminal charges against Knight, said they were struck by the birdshots. Chumley said the incident was an accident and received an apology from the coach. Simpson, however, said he thought he was shot purposely. Simpson, 51, said he yelled at Knight and his companion to not hunt near his home. He was struck on the neck shortly after. Chumley had been hit on her foot the day before. Knight dismissed Simpson’s allegations, saying they are ridiculous. Lubbock police said they did not plan to press charges against the coach.
