    Nonsense. He can speak the truth to the face of his kids. What purpose does it serve by throwing his entire senior class under the bus telling the media that they're all losers and drug addicts? More coaches don't do it because it's unprofessional and wrong.

    It was an embarrassing act of classless incompetence which could only be achieved by a Knight. Bob has a mantle full of achievements, his kid is a bum who knows less than nothing.

    pat knight can only live off his dads name for so long.

    he is now with lamar and his team sucks. the sense of urgency isnt for his kids, its for him to not have to go down to high school to coach

    He's most likely gone down the "face to face" road many times this season...........and can't get through to these 22 year old young men. Maybe a public ass-kicking will do them good.

    Make no mistake here........I'm not saying Knight is a good coach. I just don't have a big issue with trying a different tactic if previous attempts/approaches fail time and again.

    i didnt watch the whole thing because i dont care.

    but from what i heard, his team out rebounded and had 10 more shots.

    if there was a problem with attitude it would show in the hustle, not on if you make or miss shots and there he was calling out attempts/makes

    cannot wait to laugh my ass off when i see him at high school level

    this. he has no business telling the kid that he doesnt know what it takes to win, when he apparently doesnt either.

    the problem i have with knight calling his team out is that hes a shitty coach, end of story. hes calling out guys he didnt recruit who happen to be giving him his best season to date. a different team and coach, id like this. he comes out looking like a sore loser and wanting to blame others for his failures.

    i am knowledgeable about the southland conference. he has really turned the team around with no recruits of his own. the last coach was really bad. the team played no defense and tried to just out score teams. lamar hasn't been this good in a long time.

    i think they have covered the spread against louisville, george mason, kentucky, and maybe ohio state.

    Pat is a good coach. Be careful with any Texas Tech reference. Don't forget the shenanigans they used to get rid of Leach.

    He just said on tv he said those things a couple weeks ago because he knew he had a strong team, bs, he said what was in his heart and was desperate and thought his chances at the tourney was slipping.

    Guy went from coaching a major university in a major conference to the Southland. Does not happen on accident. Texas Tech became less competitve each year he coached, and he left the team in shambles. If you want to crown him, then crown his ass.
