As if I needed to hate ESPN any more than I already did, I was disgusted to see as soon as they reported Coach Knights death, it was immediately followed by clips of his "controversial" moments. Classless.

Interesting little anecdote.

Decades before they would serve together on the Supreme Court, William Rehnquist and Sandra Day O’Connor were engaged in a different type of courtship.

The two grew close while attending Stanford Law School — they regularly shared notes and eventually became a couple. Although Sandra Day, as she was known then, eventually broke up with Rehnquist and married a different Stanford Law classmate, John O’Connor, an author revealed to NPR in 2018 that she first turned down a marriage proposal from Rehnquist, the future chief justice, in the early 1950s.
