Another day, another reality TV show. This time, college Athletes compete for a walk-on spot on the Texas Tech basketball team, coached by the infamous Bobby Knight (he of the chair-throwing, player-choking, media-bashing tirades).

Knight, of course, will be the star of the show, as he prefers. Sixteen kids will vie for the privilege of joining his team. Along the way, they'll learn (in "Knight School") about life metaphorically through basketball—or at least Knight's view of the world.

The real winner here figures to be Texas Tech. "Knight School" will feature the campus prominently, much like "The Scholar" highlighted USC.

Stay tuned.
