ESPN Ignores Mater Dei Hoops Coach Gary McKnight's Rapist-Coddling Past

• The fact that Mcknight/Mater Dei can recruit from 20 million people, offer scholarships, housing, jobs to the parents, coaching positions on the team with travel expenses anad new gym built by Nike should exclude Mckight from consideration-most wins. Andrade is not the only crimminal walking the halls at MD. Pat Barette and Rich Pasparol(covicted sex offender)are paid by Nike to recruit for MD and at times served on the coaching staff. I read a 1998 article in Scholastic Athletic Mag where McKnight claims he is never influenced by parents or bends to their wishes to get players. Nor does he associate with bodybrokers-potential criminal types. He does not have to associate with them he is one/Barette who is paid by NIKE.-and his bench is full of daddy coaches-WEIR

• I chuckle when I hear about these "great" high school coaches. I can dig it when a coach decides to work at the high school level because (a) he/she wants to work with kids of all abilities, (b) he/she wants some family time, (c) enjoys classroom teaching, or (d) any combination of the above. I've never heard that McKnight coaches high school basketball for any of these reasons. He appears to be a rather short man and the desire to be good at something - even as a big fish in a small pond - seems to be prevalent amongst these "Napoleon" types.

• Juni, Uh, .. that's not the first thing that came to mind. You??

• GOOD GRIEF!!!! IMAGINE THAT FREEK COMING AT YOU WITH HIS PANTS DOWN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

• The good news is the company that hired andrade, Varsity Gold, and still kept him on even after they knew he admitted to having sex with an under-age student, went out of business in march of 2009. Hopefully andrade is not working as a fundraiser for another company or for himself.

• One of the students JEff had sex with/is HOT!!!! She got 3 million, i think!!!

• Gustavo, McKnight has the same narcissistic attitude that most Bishops and Cardinals like Brown and Mahony have. He looks more like a mascot than a coach. In fact if Mater Dei would just change their name to the "Friar Tucks" he could be both coach and mascot! Keep up the good work!
