Dave starts out saying...
"Disciplinary issues combined with.500 records have been non-existent
in Dana Altman??™s program for better than a decade."
But is that true about discipline issues? Lots have been made about Jim Les' discipline issues, but I contend Les has actually had fewer such issues than Dana!
He's certainly entitled to think what he wants, but what about the ongoing issues with Stinnett that have gone back 3 years and have resulted in numerous benchings and suspensions...those discipline issues certainly have been "existent"?
Also many people have posted that they have seen him drinking (while underage) and also smoking weed...I realize those are just hearsay accounts, but they are numerous and surely the coaching staff must be aware of all this??
And, as noted elsewhere there were troublesome issues with...
-Isacc Miles who refused to play the way Altman wanted and who had drug issues and suspensions, then finally got booted
-Ty Morrison, who had health problems but who had serious issues and anger at the Creighton staff for the way he was treated.
He didn't leave due to his illness, but due to issues with the staff.
-Kenton Walker, who indeed didn't get along with P'Allen, but really stated quite plainly that the reason he left was because of the inconsistent discipline coming from the coaching staff - NOT because of his differences with teammates.
-D'Angalo Jackson felt he was misled on his chances of playing time, argued with Dana and was gone...
-Terrell Taylor - who single handedly won the only NCAA Tourney game for Dana in the past decade, failed drug tests and was gopne after his junior year.
The kid was a potential stud, had 28 points in the upset of #5 seed Florida, and hit the game winning 3-pt shot in OT with 0.2 seconds in the game.
-Cavel Witter and Dana had issues non-stop and Cavel left then was begged back and now has a much smaller role......
and there were others, Bishop, Henderson, Porter...but a lot of the discipline issues were not plastered all over the papers like happens in Peoria, and some were just rumored, but where there's smoke, there's fire.......so I perhaps DR never heard about them...
so...believe what you want...but I find it surprising that Bradley gets labelled as a renegade program with lots of discipline issues, but we've had fewer than HALF the issues Crighton has had in the same time span, and CU is described as
"Disciplinary issues ..have been non-existent ..for better than a decade"
