Message: [QUOTE="DoctorBombay, post: 202739, member: 626"] Fair enough- but who's to say he hasn't already tried these methods & gotten no results? There was apparently a long history of "stuff" going on at Lamar, & Knight was brought in as a "disciplinarian" to right the ship. There's an old adage that says it much better to go from being strict to be lenient, then from lenient to be strict (or something like that).:) I also have less of a problem with "nepotism" etc. , than some others. I like/respect Bob Knight and, IMO, if the apple doesn't fall far from the tree, then Pat Knight will be a success in coaching. As for playing them 30+ minutes, what else is he supposed to do? He can still teach & try to instill what he wants, while also playing them. If OTOH he were to sit them down folks would be saying he's being vindictive, etc. He's not looking to hurt these kids or their futures, he's trying to teach...so why not play them? [/QUOTE]
