Yawn. Duke loyalist to the end. As for Few, he’s solidly in Izzo territory of coaches who don’t have nearly enough hardware considering the talent they’ve had to work with (although at least Izzo has one ring to wave around).

 

[superjohn]

If we're talking about right now and not all time there's no way K is ahead of Jay Wright.

 

[ibleedhuskyblue]

How can Rick Barnes be on any best coach list ???
He has done less with more than almost anyone.

 

[uconngb]

Jay Bilas has gone right into the crapper and is now just another ESPN lacky. he had some balls when he first arrived on the scene, now he's just another cyborg

yo leave jay bilas alone. he's predicting uconn vs zags in the sweet 16 and that we're gonna be a tough out.

Wow, way to actually show some intellectual diligence. Wright is a rung above K; swap rosters and it'll show for sure. McDermott and others should be on this list.

“Here is my list of the most famous coaches in the tournament.”

 

[gtcam]

This is for this years tournament
I have no real issue with this list - these guys have the experience of dancing
No way does Dan Hurley belong on this list now - he will at some point in the future
Love that he added McKillop

 

[ucp990411]

So if Bilas puts K at the top, he must think pretty highly of Jim Calhoun

Was gonna basically say this

Like what is the point of this list

Remember last year. They said the pups were a final 4 team. Bounced out first round. I don't pay attention anymore. Let the boys settle it on the court. Can't stand the build up and then crash.

The build up and the guessing by the talking heads gets nauseating - throw up the ball and let the games begin!!

I just listened to Gottlieb with Russillo and he had UConn beating Arkansas and said the Gonzaga game is going to be “very close.” Not sure if that’s good or bad.

Gottlieb completely mailed that segment in. Pure chalk

I don’t hate Gottlieb like most people do. I don’t think I’d want to hang out with him, but I think he knows college basketball.

I have said going back a few years now. Wright develops players well and will only recruit players he knows he can mold into his style. Plus he mentally prepares player well as they never seem to get rattled and his in game strategy is excellen’t.
I don’t hate Duke or Coach K in the slightest, but Mr GQ is better now

He is dirty as hell, but there aren't nine coaches in this tourney better than Pearl.

If "coaching" is the criteria, Squid shouldn't be top 15.

Based on current ability, not career resume, I'd take Wright and Izzo over K.

I am in the vast minority, but I think Few is a tad overrated. He is good, but not great. He built a strong program in a weak conference. Call me when he wins one.

Great job!! Coach K - Nobody has done less with more than Coach K. Give the other 9 coaches on that list the bench full of McD's All Americans and they'd have twice the titles.

Or leave him alone with your credit card

And Bill Self is on the list? It’s not the Big 12 Tournament

 

[Blue Idiaco]

People forget that Jay Wright was considered a massive underachiever in the NCAAs. his teams underperformed their seeding several times before he made. FF and then again before he won. It takes time

 

[Scot-e]

The Squid made the list? Of best coaches? Ha.
