"The Street Stops Here" was on PBS tonite. Excellent look into a world most of us cannot appreciate.

 

Anyone else watch it?

I watched some of it and found it extremely interesting.

I'd like to see that. Hurley is a coaching legend. I heard hes gone through a lot to keep St. Anthony's going.

I watched the show last night. Great coach and a well made documentary. Willing to bet he wouldn't last long coaching in Kentucky though because all the mommies and daddies would be calling their school board members and bombarding the superintendent's office with calls/visits over the way he talks to the kids.

Watched it and found it pretty interesting. Great look into a high profile program.

Maybe, but since St. Anthony is a private school, those parents are paying to send their kids there. With visions of future NBA glory for their kids while being molded by a legendary coach, methinks the whining would be muted.

You really believe they are paying tuition? I talked to a player from St. Anthony's once. He told me he came from a one bedroom apartment with just his mom and 4 kids. When asked about tuition, he simply stated it was taken care of. And I never said their parents would complain, I said if he were in Kentucky he wouldn't last long. Totally different mind-set and totally different set of rules.
