I hear certain descriptions being used for the Wayne Morgan era of ISU basketball:
Street Ball
Unstructured
Lazy
Unmotivated
Father Figure
Defenseless
Great recruiter, lousy coach
Some of the talk-radio types using these terms seem to be talking in code- the same code I heard about George Raveling. It's subtle, almost unconcious racism. Nobody's dropping the N Word when describing coaches or players, but its there.
When was the last time a white coach was hung with the "Great recruiter, lousy coach" label? Who was the last black coach to be a great "X and O man"?
Are either descriptions really accurate?
