Best Coach with no championship

[GemParty]

At one time, before 1999 is was Jim Calhoun.

Who is it now?

This would be such a fun conversation if Carmelo Anthony never attended Syracuse.

 

[Durks07]

Obviously Mick Cronin.

 

[JimHurley]

Mark Few, Chris Beard, Rick Barnes, Phil Martelli

 

[HuskyHawk]

Mark Few, Gregg Marshall, Rick Barnes. Beard hasn't been around long enough for me. Chris Holtmann could make this list eventually. Chris Mack too.

 

[Bonk]

Chris Mullin

 

[storrsroars]

Gotta be Hurley, right? At least everyone here should be thinking so!

 

[Matrim55]

Gregg Marshall by a mile.

 

[auror]

Not Sean Miller

 

[B1GEast]

Mark Few Gonzaga, by far

 

[SubInATub]

Danny Hurley

 

[dennismenace]

Brad Stevens

 

[gampelcrazies]

Mark Few or Gregg Marshall

 

[ConnZag3]

This would be such a fun conversation if Carmelo Anthony never attended Syracuse.

Same could be said if Anthony Davis didn't go to Kentucky too

I'm slightly biased but definitely think it's Few as has been mentioned. Dana Altman would be an interesting candidate as well.

 

[UC1995]

Not Sean Miller

Don't think serious cheaters should be considered. Just my opinon though.

 

[superjohn]

Beilein, Huggy Bear, and Mack are a few more names.

???
I know Melo won them a championship, but when has the picker ever been in a "best coach" conversation? Or a best anything conversation for that matter.

Gonzaga’s Mark Few
All Time Winning% 82.3 in almost 700 games
He’s never had a losing record. In fact, he only had double-digit losing seasons twice since coaching at Gonzaga in 1999. Consistently in top 10 every year, and well deserved.

Brad Stevens

Marshall, Beard, Few, Mack, Beilen, Marshall I can get on board with. Good pick.

I'll throw in Painter at Purdue too.

 

[BigEastCT]

Bobby Huggins
Lou Carnesscca
Gene Keady

Didn't include him assuming we meant active coaches.

 

[Tenspro2002]

Bobby Huggins
Lou Carnesscca
Gene Keady

Eh, Gene Keady, like Boeheim, is really more of a compiler than someone you'd consider to be in the Top 5 of his craft at any one time.

 

[Hans Sprungfeld]

Marshall, Beard, Few, Mack, Beilen, Marshall I can get on board with. Good pick.

I'll throw in Painter at Purdue too.

Nice list.
My biggest quibble is your including both Gregg and Donyell.
And some of the others might need a few more years, but warrant the watch.
