   Bobby Knight is the US head coach, true.  But officially, he does
not select the players invited to the try-outs.  The nation is divided
into four regions (I think the same regions as the NCAA tournament).
In each region a coach is selected (by Bobby Knight ?) to invite the
players of that region to the try-outs.  Knight then selects 12 men
from this group and they will play in the Olympics.

   Of course this does not mean that Knight has no say over who gets
invited to the try-outs.  What if the guy in the Mid East refused to
invite Ewing (although that would be improbable as the Georgetown coach
selects the players of that region)?
