"It’s a well-known fact within basketball circles that Lute Olson is famous for rolling the ball on the court, kicking back and enjoying the work of his recruiters. Lute Olson is not Bobby Knight." PS I've really been enjoying TBL lately. Saw this from Jason Whitlock via The Big Lead.

He could revert back to a 20 year old Lute who won't play anybody but white players, runs the pickets fence as his offense and then eventually poops his pants on the sideline.... It seems like it isn't too far off.... I think he’s starting to develop Alzheimers…who wouldn’t love to see him have a “spell” in the middle of a game?

If so, the fairness doctrine , at least in spirit, would seem to require a follow-on post identifying which PAC 10 basketball coach (past or present) most typifies Barack Obama. I'm thinking that you could go with either Andy Russo or Bob Bender and not be too far off.
