ESPN was just lauding K the other day for adjusting to a one-and-done world. Which is like what TM was saying about lauding him for teaching his players to draw fouls. When others do it, it's dirty. When he does it, you are supposed to admire the way he doesn't get the mud on his priestly robes.
eta: I actually have a lot of respect for K, as I've said before, but I can't stand the sycophancy and hagiography of the media toward the top college coaches.
