Billingsley99 Posted July 11, 2019 Report Share Posted July 11, 2019 Dakich is gong off today on the Media for giving out the address for Coach Knight. I cold not agree more with his assessment.

BobSaccamanno Posted July 11, 2019 Report Share Posted July 11, 2019 (edited) Just because a journalist can do something, doesn't mean he should do it. Journalism dogma may tell you that publishing an address is the thing to do, but I don't think it exhibits particularly refined thinking. If journalists feel under attack with their microscopic approval ratings, this type of thing will not help with their collective reputation. It's like they jump at the knee-jerk reaction instead of taking a deep breath and recognizing that restraint is often the best course of action. Say he's moving to Bloomington, which is big news, but stop short of publishing his address. There was actually a very famous singer/actress who was going to move near me and she broke the deal after the media published the address. It's a serious thing.

In this day and age. It's not impossible to find out information. In particular public records. Homes sales are public information. As an another example. And out of curiosity. I just checked the Indiana University Alumni Association member's section. And sure enough. Dan's address is listed there. Along with other information such as when he graduated, and where he currently works. Am I going to give that information out ? No. However, the two links I posted are public information. One of which Dan tweeted himself. And any IUAA member is able to check and find Dan's home address. It took about a total of 30 seconds for me to find it. I am not saying it is a good or bad thing. It is just what the internet has brought to us. Edited July 11, 2019 by milehiiu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobSaccamanno Posted July 11, 2019 Report Share Posted July 11, 2019 Good point, Mile. I am not a huge fan of making all that public, including the price paid for a home. I suppose there is a benefit in terms of researching property taxes. However, I am in favor of the privacy side of things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, I am in favor of the privacy side of things. I will give another example. As I own rental properties. And not one week goes by that I do not get mail requests from people wanting to buy one or more of my properties. They have my name, and address to the house that I actually live in. Along, of course with the addresses of my rentals. It's public information. Anyone can get it. Either by checking the internet, or going to the county court house. Zillow, Redfin, and others are sources that have current property values all over the country. Might add. I checked on Dakich's house. Very nice. And sale date coincides with his tweet, and another tweet he made public about having to put a new a/c unit in his new house. Lastly. We all were amazed when we saw pictures of Tom Crean's house in B-town. Talk about a house. WOW. I didn't think they made them that big in B-town. I don't recall people getting upset about that when it was posted on Hoosier Sports Nation. I just find it duplicitous of Dakich who is a media type to come off against another media person, in the very same town he makes a living.... in this day and age, when all that information is so easily found on the internet.

NotIThatLives Posted July 11, 2019 Report Share Posted July 11, 2019 So... how cool would it be to have Knight and Keady sitting together for iu Purdue? Espn3 could do a legends feed, with Hummel and Suhr leading the broadcast with some selective blips of knight and keady conversation during the game. Bring in other legends for ongoing conversation and observations throughout the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrflynn03 Posted July 11, 2019 Report Share Posted July 11, 2019 Didnt know how I would feel if he were to come back since it's been so long. But if he does make an appearance at AH I think it will be satisfying. As far as advertising his address and house details, its public record anyone can access. So, do the decent thing and not report it, quit make things easier for the lazy and stupid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IU Scott Posted July 11, 2019 Report Share Posted July 11, 2019 Maybe RMK coming back might be what is needed for this program to turn the page.

FKIM01 Posted July 11, 2019 Report Share Posted July 11, 2019 If I understand the term correctly, the Star doxxed coach Knight. ...and despite my anger at Knight's pettiness toward the university long after those involved were gone, I find myself remembering his tenure mostly with fondness and hoping he comes "home" to Assembly Hall this upcoming season...just once, coach...just once. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
milehiiu Posted July 11, 2019 Report Share Posted July 11, 2019 (edited) Coach Knight has had many opportunities to make a public appearance at IU. Other than taking in the baseball game last Spring. Two stick out prominently in my mind. The first was when IU inducted Coach into the IU Hall of Fame. And he turned down the invitation saying his presence would take away from others being inducted that year. And then, when IU honored the 1976 team. I am not even sure if Coach replied to IU at that time. Never the less. It IS time for Coach to come HOME. Better late than never. And better now, than when it is too late. -------------------- As an aside. Dan Dakich is on record of saying that Coach has been on campus in private many times over the years. And has visited some of his favorite B-town restaurants as well. Edited July 11, 2019 by milehiiu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has always been in Coach's corner. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
