Bobby Knight wouldn't have had the cops called. He would have kicked the kids ass right there.

crean looking like a real problem solver. It's like that episode of South Park where they play junior detectives and constantly want to tell on the kids who stole the doll to get them in trouble instead of taking care of it themselves.

He's been doing plenty of spring creaning, that's for sure.
Do they have enough players left to make a starting 5?

But Bob Knight knew who to approach and challenge and knew who not to.
He is no fool.
Some of those kids wouldn't play that crap from where they are from. He would not have kicked that many kids ass without a tussle.

"An angry black male"--thats a horrible description of Crean.
The real victim in all of this is the potted plant. I doubt it did anything to provoke the situation.

I just love how all Crean talks about is "getting help for this troubled individual who is a danger to himself." Obviously it's not politically correct to say the kid just got pissed off, and lost it.

Bob knight had scores of players leave the program, when he was at IU.

I doubt Knight ever had this many players leave the team at once. Honestly, Indiana handled the situation after Sampson was fired poorly. The interim coach shouldn't have had the right to kick players off. DeAndre Thomas left too I see. 60% of people on Fox Sports think Indiana will be under .500 next year. Remember Crean "It's Indiana, it's Indiana."
