That is all overstated by a few things that became public. I was a Bobby Knight hater until I read "A Season on the Brink" and realized how much he cares about those kids and how all of the "negative" stuff he does is truly for a positive reason. There are so many coaches out there in college basketball that will allow the kids to do whatever they want and aren't really there to coach them or to make them men. It is that combined with the same attitudes in the AAU programs that have led to the NBA becoming a virtually unwatchable brand of basketball.
