^ This is why Bob Knight said he would never coach in the pros. He said the coach has all the accountability, but makes less than the players. When a team underperforms, do they fire the team, no they fire the HC. So, if all the accountability is with the HC, shouldn't he be paid at least as much as the top players? And when he (or she) doesn't and the players know if they underperform the coach will be fired, what incentive do players have to listen to coaches?
JOHN ROBERTS: From time to time in the years to come, I hope you will be treated unfairly so that you will come to know the value of justice... I wish you bad luck, again, from time to time so that you will be conscious of the role of chance in life and understand that your success is not completely deserved and that the failure of others is not completely deserved either.
