I do not know if anyone ever saw the antics of Lou Holtz, Roy Williams or many football head coaches that will go unnamed. Williams grabbed a player in anger to get that kid to play defense while the play was live. Lou Holtz grabbed the facemask of a player in clear view of the camera. I did not see anyone at the time go crazy about those actions or talk about those coaches as bullies or being out of control.

Now if you feel the actions are wrong, that is your right. Just do not come here and get mad because Knight does this and ignore all the situations that took place in front of the camera and not say anything. I agree there is a double standard, but the two coaches I referenced are also very successful coaches and the media or the public was not outraged.

Peace
