A colleague was recently musing on whether a good keynote speaker at an upcoming event would be a college basketball coach. My response was that might work out pretty well, as most of the big school coaches seem to attract interest. I went on to enthuse how we could even have the event raise money for a charity, like buying food for the coach’s players. My colleague was not amused, but I think the idea has been shelved in favor of a politician.
I am one of the few American males who does not follow any sports, so I really have trouble understanding the draw of these coach types, especially college coaches who, by the time they have gained enough notoriety to draw an audience, have also embraced the devil’s pact that they will exploit their players to the maximum.
