Message: [QUOTE="nelsonmuntz, post: 4849634, member: 833"] Rupp does not belong. In addition to being a horrible human being, he won during an era where most of the best teams went to the NIT, and he inflated his winning percentage against an SEC that was segregated until the very end of Rupp's career. I think Bobby Knight is overrated. Yes, he won 3 titles, and the second team that won wasn't that good, but he had a lot of down years for a top coach, and he inherited a top program in an era where basketball was still a regional sport and Indiana was one of the top regions for talent. Should be included somewhere: Denny Crum only has two championships, but he was an incredible coach and one of the most innovative of his era. Jay Wright is top 10 of all time. [/QUOTE]
