I don't think too many have questioned Knight's ability to coach. He remains one of the best game coaches in the country. But you can't compare DW yelling at players with Knight's often inexcusable behavior. When DW chokes a player, throws a chair onto the floor or punches a ref, maybe then you can compare his actions to BK. -- Fordham Rams Basketball Message Board

I think "often inexcusable" may be a bit harsh. Other than the salad bar incident, Knight has been a model citizen at Texas Tech. I think certain actions by DW could be compared to Knight (ie Lappas incident) but I don't think thats necessarily a bad thing. They're both firey guys which who hate to lose and I like that.
