You’re not speaking ill, you’re speaking truth

Knight was a bully and a piece of shite, miserable human. He alienated everyone interacted with because he was a petulant overgrown baby. The world is better off without him.

Yet he won 3 NC’s and probably had the single greatest season in modern college basketball.

With the exception of a very few, the guys that played for him would run through wall for him. Played for a hard nose coach that took a similar approach as coach Knight, while I hated it at the time, I’m a better person for it today.

No doubt, in his later years he alienated some friendships. But, if I had a son that was talented enough to play at that level, I would want him to play for a coach like Knight. The life lessons that come out of that are invaluable. You come out capable and prepared to deal with life and not cower or pout every time something doesn’t go your way.
