If you don't know one of the most famous and successful College Coaches Ever.
Most College wins in history of college basketball.. Also one of the biggest pieces of crap ever.
He led Indiana to an unbeaten season and has many other medals to show off.
But he was known as a piece of crap who physically intimidated anyone who question anything he did on Campus or on the court.. Finally in early 2000 he was caught on tape at a practice choking one of his players for fouling up at a fucking practice.. My God!!! and so he was fired! What a shit storm... The Students of Indiana did everything they could to keep this piece of crap in his coaching position... Violent rallies, disruption anything you could think of..
Reason I posted this? These kids were the same type of species which got Trump Elected.. They were all about 15 yrs younger then... But these are the Trumpers right the fuck now!

(1,900 posts)between Christmas feedings. I lived in Bloomington from '79 to '07 and got progressively disgusted by that asshole over the years. Can't believe Trump hasn't installed "the General" as Secretary of something yet, they're certainly birds of a feather.

Of course you saw the same kind of blind loyalty to sports figures from officials and fans of programs at Baylor, Penn State, Ohio State and other places.

(50,555 posts)...that no one sent a package full of white powder to ESPN's studios for daring to tell the truth about Bobby Knight. I really don't think there has ever been a worse asshole in all coaching...Bobby Knight made Billy Martin look like a nice guy, and that takes some doing.
And like Joe Paterno, Bobby Knight has fans who would kill someone who spoke against their hero.
