Bobby Knight doesn’t need me helping him defend himself.  He’ll throw a chair at me or slap me in the face.  That is quite alright with me.  I’ve seen this 8,000 times on ESPN.  I’m sure it’s aired everywhere else too.  Is this really that big of a crisis?  Michael Prince even said he had no problem with it.  Even his mom had no problem with it.  So why does everyone else?  The man needed his attention and he got it.  Knight was quoted as saying, "f I was confronted with the same set of circumstances I would do the exact same thing." 

I say, "Thank god we still have teachers in this world who are that passionate about making sure their kids understand what’s important in this world."  Development of character is one of those important things and that’s one of the reasons people send their kids to school.  More is learned in this world outside of books than inside of them.  The best teachers I had were the ones that brought personal insight to the class and didn’t just read off of Powerpoint decks all day.  I’ve discussed the importance of character before and the crippling that we are doing to the youth of this country.

Maybe it’s just the talking heads that have never been a part of a team before that don’t quite understand from where I come.
