OT: Who are the best coaches in college basketball

[UncleSpliff]

Sampson has to be up there. Has his team on the verge of another final 4 with a completely different starting 5 from last year after losing his best player earlier in the season.

2 best players probably!

I think Jay Wright is the best overall coach in the game right now. If I’m picking who I’d want to lead UConn other than him, here are some: Kelvin Sampson, Rick Pitino, Musselman, Few, Self, Bennett, Drew, Cronin, Beard, Pearl.

It’s a good list. I’d add Oats.

But you know what? Hurley can be as good or better than most of them. He does something’s better than some of those coaches already. I want to believe with his devotion and work ethic he will do even more.

I like Oats too, especially had you asked me last season. His style just scares me a little bit. I’m not necessarily saying this is the case, but sometimes it seems like coaches who have a certain style get away from recruiting to that specific style. Oats is now going after big time 5 star, athletic players who don’t necessarily shoot it very well. There’s pressure on these guys to recruit that way, Shaka was kind of like that too at Texas. Need to see a little more from Oats before I put him in that group. I want to believe that Hurley can get into that group, but he’s basically ten years in at bigger programs and still hasn’t made a second weekend. That’s a little concerning.

It took jc time to make that shift too. From running the press with athletes to 4 and 5 stars . I think oats will be a force over next 10 years at Bama.

Jay Wright is in the Hall of Fame.

Yes forgot about the latest inducted class. I would add that Tony Bennett is also a lock.

What Kelvin Sampson has done at Houston over the past 5 plus years is amazing being they are AAC. He is in top 2 or 3 with Jay Wright. Maybe McDermott is with them. I like Bob McKillop in the top 10

who's better, Danny or Bobby?

Let their record judge them.

I haven't looked.

facts, the AAC is still a mid- major imo

Musselman is having a lot of success and watching his team play it is confident chaos and don't look back. May be missing something but I don't see any pros on his roster they are just a pain in the rear to play. Sampson is on a run and knew what he saw in Josh and snapped him up and improved his game.
