Earlier we talked about how maybe BASEketball didn’t age all that well…but man, the message of 1994’s Blue Chips REALLY doesn’t age well. The real villain in that movie is college basketball players making money! But anyway, there is a villain of sorts in the “big game” at the end of the movie between fictional Western University and a very real Power 4 school, led in the movie by its real legendary coach. This coach was certainly a villain on the day the game was filmed, delaying the start of filming because he was mad about a discussion with a TV reporter he had that day. Then he messed up at least one take of Western’s game-winning play because he wanted to prove a team he coached would have stopped the play. (Thankfully, Shaq was eventually allowed to dunk the ball so everyone could go home.) None of this is surprising given this coach's history of competitiveness and controversy. Name the coach.
