No, I was using a rhetorical device - turning the question around to make a point. The point is that there are overpaid and underperforming coaches and overpaid and underperforming professors. If you doubt that, I guess our chat should end.
And look at how ultimately it was the Faculty Senate - and NOT the lacrosse team - that brought the lasting shame on Duke...as just one example. And I doubt any of them lost their jobs, and they are as discredited today as Mike Nifong is. What is coach Pressler, Coach K, or any coach to think about that?
