Wooden and Minow

Did anyone else notice that the video clip of Coach Wooden and his actions kind of resembled those of Newton Minow? Coach Wooden told the one player that he couldn't force him to cut off his hair and be clean shaven because that was his personal choice. However, he did control who was going to play and start, and the player already knew Coach Wooden's rules. He wanted to play, so he shaved. His seniority didn't give him any advantage. Newton seemed to have these same persuasion methods because he had his six principles and let the networks know he was "opposed to governmental censorship," but there might be a chance that your license wouldn't be renewed if your programs didn't fit his principle (57).
