There's no way a coach of a major program doesn't know exactly what's going on at his program. 100%. Totally agree. ... Especially with the sneaker companies doing that type of stuff, you have to kind of know that somebody's getting greased on the backside.
Big Cat also used the opportunity to plant a flag regarding a certain Big Ten coach's legacy if the hardware doesn't start piling up soon.

I'll give you an honest answer. I don't think LeBron knows what he wants to do. ... Like, I think at this point he has no – I think he's – I honestly don't think in his heart of hearts he knows what he wants to do.
If you see a 53-year-old Rafael Palmeiro wagging his finger at a pitcher next season, just remember he's doing it for the integrity of the game.
