Bobby Knight resigned, recently, and that marks the end of an era. He was the last of the "Old School" coaches that felt the in your face, disciplinarian type of coaching was the way to go. That didn't sit well with the new era people who feel that players should be coddled and pampered to the point that they feel they have no one to answer to and they call the shots, not the coach. No one can argue that Coach Knight didn't graduate his players. He had very few NCAA inquiries and none that had to do with cheating. He may have coached past his time but I was still a fan. He coached one of my former players and his only comment to me was that Coach was "making me into a man". That doesn't mean he liked everything he did but that he respected him for what he was trying to accomplish. That player went on to play in the NBA. He may not have made it without Knights guidance, who's to say. I am not going to say that I agreed with everything Coach did but I will miss him because he was not afraid to stick to his plan and didn't care if it might offend someone or it might seem unfair. He was an honest man and, to tell you the truth, some of the stuff he did was hilarious.
