[QUOTE="78pike, post: 805868, member: 4030"] Weak people are the ones that cheat to achieve a goal rather than maintaining a high moral character. Rather than selling the recruits on his ability as a coach and the virtues of Duke as a university, he decided to take the easy way out and pay for the top players like Zion. There is nothing to respect in that. Plus he has always been such a huge hypocrite trying to portray himself as a standard of high moral character when all the while he cusses and screams on the sidelines like a big baby when he doesn't get his way. He is well known for his many F bombs on the court when things don't go his way. There is nothing to respect in that. Add to that his coaching tactic of having his players slide underneath opposing players as they are in the air going to the basket trying to draw charges with no regard to the health and well being of those opposing student athletes. Forgive me but I will never miss the likes of him on the court. To me he represents everything that is wrong with college basketball. Also, does anyone else think it is an egomaniacal move to announce your retirement a year in advance so that everyone can bow down at your feet for an entire year rather than just retiring at the end of the season and riding off into the sunset. I have always respected those coaches that finished their last season and said that's it. I'm done. [/QUOTE]
