Sign Up Now!Not related to his coaching, but my experience with him when he was still playing for the Jets and would come back to the Univeristy to workout and play hoops.
One particular night he was playing pickup and wearing his Jets t-shirt. I had just finished a season of college ball and was debating whether I wanted to keep playing in college, I was not a student at NU at the time. I'm a 5' 7" white PG who no one really knew up there. I got on the court as a last option for a group and they were playing his team. Naturally, they put their worst player on me because of how I look. First posession I get a steal off of Scott and went down and dunked it. That pissed him off and he decided he was going to guard me. He tried getting really physical with me, I proceeded to score every point on him to win the game. All he did after the game was talk shit to me telling me that I was lucky and he would stop me next time he got on the court. I didn't say a word, played one more game and walked out. He was furious that I didn't stay so he could get his chance to stop me after I embarassed him.
I tell that story to say that I had serious doubts before we hired him that he could handle it. He was so mentally weak when things didn't go as he expected them to. Glad he's gone and it wouldn't hurt my feelings to never hear from or about him again.

Dude wants everyone to kiss his ass but only when it's convenient for him.It kind of feels like a guy that has a presence to him, and wants everyone to notice him when he walks into a room, but doesn't actually want anyone to talk to him until he talks to people, and doesn't know how to differentiate small town Nebraska talk, from PR media days talk and action.
Yeah it’s like a girl that dresses all slutty then gets mad when I stare at herIt kind of feels like a guy that has a presence to him, and wants everyone to notice him when he walks into a room, but doesn't actually want anyone to talk to him until he talks to people, and doesn't know how to differentiate small town Nebraska talk, from PR media days talk and action.

Yes, it was the fans that made the family uncomfortable. Not the whoring or the alcoholism.

Well, the fans could have done a better job keeping the wiring and alcoholism under wraps. It's all of our faults, when you think about itYes, it was the fans that made the family uncomfortable. Not the whoring or the alcoholism.
Did he even take his family out in public
He just hid them in his basement
