“Im not sure that Leach did anything that was necessarily out of bounds but I dont know the details and havent really followed the story.”
Even if Knight (and other coaches of his era) did nasty things to players, such isn’t allowed now. Woody Hayes can’t be punching opposing players on the sideline, for instance.
The story is that this player was told to stay away from practice by doctors. To “punish” the kid, he was locked in solitary confinement in non-residential places (ie, cleaning closet?), in the dark, and told to stand there, not leaning on anything. If that would’ve happened at Gitmo then we’d be hearing about it on the nightly news (like the hooded guy w/ his arms out?).
It might’ve happened in the past, but it cannot happen now. And, even if Knight did that in the past, it doesn’t make it right (now or then).
"The story is".....
We shall see what the real "story" is.....
Maybe we will get it.........
The "closet" as it is called is actually the media room in which the coach is interviewed. The 'Shed" was an equipment building where they kept four wheelers and other equipment. Neither were little confined spaces.
