I have a lot of respect for Wooden as a coach, how he coached, he was a good coach, but from then on, and I don’t mind saying it, I don’t respect Wooden, because he allowed Sam Gilbert to do whatever it took to recruit kids. And one time he told me, he said ‘ I just did n’t know how to deal with Sam Gilbert. ’ And I ’m saying to Bob Knight ‘ I damn sure could have dealt with him, ’.
