Hi All from Sarasota Fl.
To pass the time, some UCONN BB fans have tried to list (in order) the top 10 Men's BB coaches of all time.
We did reach a concensus on the first 5 - although as noted, we thought Dean Smith was vulnerable. We did debate the relative position of JC vs. Knight - but gave the nod to JC because of his 3 and half champtionships.
First Tier:
Wooden
Mike K.
Calhoun
Knight
Smith – might eventually drop out if someone below escalates – say if J Wright wins 2-3 more titles.
No such consensus on the next 5 - so we would love to get the Board's views. Note that the following were not necessarily listed in order - we just threw out the names we felt should get consideration - and I'm sure we probably forget one or two deserving others.
Candidates For Next Tier:
Izzo
Boheim
Calipari
Wright
Williams
Pitino
Donovan
Few
Huggins
Bennett
Thompson
