both are hugely talanted. but either could be replaced with someone nearly as talanted minus the personality disorder.

isn't it a given that a good coach inspires their players?

it's telling that his defender's feel it neccesary to cite the player's who found him inspiring. I would assume all coach's at the college level have that.

how many have the wreckage this guy left?

if inspiration is fear, then he's the best at it.
knights teams usually, hustle, play good defense, run good motion offense and make few mistakes. they are in proper postions on the floor and aware of game situations. thats all good coaching.
i admit i don't like knights act but respect his results and his teams. personally, i'm a dean smith fan and the carolina chain of coaches.
