Your a Coach of a Basketball Team, does this give you the right in forcing your believes on others????????
If you are Church going God fearing person must all the members of your team be??????
If you are a Homophobia, must all your assistants and players be as well??????
I believe Patterson and Portland are on some kind of major power trip.
Just what rights are you given for the title of Head Coach???????

| I've been trying to do the math - was Patterson at Vandy as an asst. when that graduating senior's letter to the Administration was somehow published? Seems like if my math is right, then Patterson learned from one of the best on how to be all-powerful and untouchable. That senior was the one that transferred in, if memory serves me right, and became a big scoring threat. Can't remember her name though but remember the brew-ha-ha it caused in the paper publishing a letter supposed to be confidential. Let's face it, Voepel has only scratched the surface of the dark side of collegiate athletics. Kudos to her for the wisdom and courage!

| Unfortunately, the dark side does not exist in college athletics alone. People all over the place are suffering because they work for bosses who may know the X's and O's of the operation, but do not have the temperament or the training to be a leader and mentor to the workplace.

From an earlier article in the Topeka Capital Journal:
"It feels like almost everything we do at Kansas State is an outgrowth of what I learned in my time at Vanderbilt under coach Foster," said Patterson, who coached in one Final Four, one Elite Eight and two Sweet 16s in four years as a Vandy assistant.
I guess she has learned everything from Foster... including his pattern of treating many players terribly. Apples don't fall far from the tree...
