[QUOTE="Second place is 1st loser, post: 1956289, member: 749504"] Who do you believe the he bullied? His players love him. Coaches that he coached against show their love for him(even Gene Keady and they were always at war). The refs....well, not so much. We're in a day and age where discipline and toughness is frowned upon. That man continually squeezed the last ounce of ability out of his kids and his teams. He was one of the greatest ever and part of what made him great was that he tuned people out that just don't matter. His kids were his priority and opposing fans(us)....didn't matter, which is what made the rivalry so much fun. [/QUOTE]
