Popovich voiced respect for San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick and his national anthem protest. Keep in mind that Popovich attended the U.S. Air Force Academy, where he was a basketball star and received a bachelor’s degree in Soviet studies. He served five years of required active duty in the Air Force and once considered a career with the CIA.

“A pretty good group of people immediately thought he was disrespecting the military,” Popovich recently told the media in San Antonio. “That had nothing to do with his protest. In fact, he was able to do what he did because of what the military does for us. Most thinking people understand that, but there is always going to be an element that wants to jump on a bandwagon and that’s what is unfortunate about our country.”
