First of all, being abused or not has nothing to do with the make-up and talent of the child.
Second of all, I'm not talking about instilling values. I'm talking about kicking one's players; cursing out one's players; choking one's players.
I would not, under any circumstances, put my child in that person's care for four years. Period. Lots of people do. I personally think that's a mistake.

Knight said (yesterday) that today's players do not have the fundamentals that they used to. Add to that the lower moral standards.

What do those things have to do with what is reasonable behavior by an educator toward a student?

AND, they graduate which is the best most college players could hope to ever do.

I disagree. I think they could reasonably hope to graduate without suffering verbal, physical and mental abuse. But that's just me, I guess.
