    That was you? I always knew he hated being called Coach.

    Hope you didn’t write this headline:

    Mike Hargrove - Indians '95 World Series Head Coach

    In his situation: bad press is good press. Everyone now knows this clown exists.

    I don't think so. It was either Mike Holley or Dale Arnold who mentioned it on radio.

    Sounds like this is the way to go. Even with the older coaches like Krzyzewski. Q: Mike, how has Covid affected your team's preparation? Why is that disrespectful. You shouldn't have to say, "Coach ..." But if you said "Krzyzewski what do you think of North Carolina's defense?" that seems rude and odd both.
