Another angle to the RMK vs. CTC debate. I don't think there was any sales behind RMK's recruiting. You knew you were going to get thrown to the wolves but come out a better person. Was that true with CTC? It seems there were a lot of players that didn't have the whole picture when they signed to play for him.

Just a thought.

Not overly upset though.. was just tired of reading it honestly. The jabs at Crean that is.

Crean is bad at coaching basketball. And he's weird. I've got plenty more jabs, but I'll stop there.

 

Yes, I'm immature sometimes. No, I don't care.

Knight didn't have to sell himself; his results spoke for themselves. Coaches who have to talk about coaching an NBA All-Star and going to a Final Four over a decade ago are usually the ones who are getting their butts kicked on the recruiting trail and whine about successful coaches waking up on third base thinking they hit a triple.

Did Knight care about getting players to the NBA? He doesn't strike me as someone who would give a crap about that, but I wasn't around so I don't know. That's one thing that really irritated me about Crean. I get that the times are different now than they were then, but it almost seemed like Crean was more focused on developing players for the NBA than he was winning games for IU.

Originally I think the intent was like Jr mods or something along those lines. But I don't look at there really being any difference anymore.

Lol yep. Originally, it was a Natty and Jaybob idea (They were ones with access to make that title change). They wanted to bring on more mods on a trial basis. If someone were batshit crazy they would be able to get rid of that access easily and quick.

Me too man. Me too. Them and Reb. The site they went to is just too choppy. We were spoiled on HSN. 247 blew. This was a nice site. Upkeep on this site slips, but it is very hard to stay on top of a growing site. 41 is a busy dude and has built a nice site. Most of the fun comes from the mod boards and those three dude were awesome over the years.
