Coach K was and still is one of the greatest college basketball coaches as well as a very well respected man. This quote makes a lot of sense and under different circumstances i might feel different about what is being said, however; I disagree because there are many people in this world who are terrible people and yet have done incredible things in their lives. Coach K was the complete opposite of that because he was a great guy and on top of that he led his team to many unforgettable victories. The reason I disagree with his quote is because I have heard of wealthy people who are terrible people but who have accomplished to get where they are in life. Sure they might be hated by some people and maybe respected by others, but frankly I don't think that they care because if they did then they wouldn't be the type of people they are today. In all reality a good name is something that a person would want to achieve in life, but it is not the greatest achievement. In my opinion, there are far more important things in life that a good name. Many might remember you for the person you were or the things you did but when you really stop to think about it all that is ever going to matter is how you lived your life and if you enjoyed it or not. It's good to be a good person but it can also be good to be a little selfish at times.
Coach K
