I’d definitely take Rupp no questions asked but if Pitino was on that list he’d be a close 2nd!
Because they didn’t let black kids play for the majority of that run so none of those games really count or matter.
I call BS on this. Race had nothing to do with my vote. Rupp was a hell of a coach.
The dude coached 70 years ago lol. He’d be staggered at the number of black athletes on the floor today, much less the way the game is played. Rupp won primarily because 1) black kids couldn’t play the majority of his career and 2) the NCAA tournament field was significantly smaller than it is today.
That’s what I was thinking! He didn’t even put the better do the two Van Gundy on the list!
Rick Pitino...
I'd probably take him way past his prime tomorrow over most coaches in their prime.
The man is a ball coach.
I don't need to go over his resume...needless to say it's as impressive as it is long.
He's saved and resurrected to great heights every program he's been at.
His prime was some of the best basketball this program has ever seen, if not the best. Built a team that was in the title game 3 years straight.
Would not surprise me one bit to see St. John's advance in March if not next season, the season after.

His resume is certainly longer than his ability to last in sexual congress at an Italian restaurant
WTF has black players playing or not playing got to do with it.? They weren’t televising many UK basketball games in the 40’s. With only 8 teams in the tournament you could have the best team in the country and not be invited.
Pretty thin.
It
What it means is that he avoided coaching against 75-80% of the best players in the country because black athletes weren’t allowed to play. That’s like a boxing champion ducking all the top contenders and only fighting amateurs, has-beens, and past their prime fighters and calling himself “the GOAT”. Kinda like what Floyd Mayweather built his career on.
If he doesn’t have black players and the opposition doesn’t have black players wtf is the difference. Like saying Ruth, Gehrig and Cobb weren’t great players because baseball wasn’t integrated when they played.

The 14 people that voted Cal over Rupp need to turn in their fan cards immediately and be ready to get slingshotted out of the state.
Your comments about Rupp show extreme ignorance on your part. He won over 77% with 8 SEC titles in those 14 years in which suggest he let our program collapse. This include 82% with 5 SEC title in his last 5 seasons.

Spoiler: they weren’t because the best competition was playing in the other league

You’re the one hating on our best black player, look in the mirror fool.
What do you mean pretty thin?
You think if you revived Adolph Rupp and plucked him on the sidelines in today's college game, that he would win?
Is that really, truly what you think?
What a dumb post, Jesus Christ.
He ain't no troll! I know that. Idk about you though. You seem to b the troll.
Wow! You are very confident to be so dim. Welcome to ignore.
Phil
Phil Jackson won't even look at a job unless it's got 2 of the top 5 players in the league. He don't do rebuilds. I don't think he is even that great of a coach. Players make him look good when you got Jordan, Pippen, Rodman, Kukoc. Then Shaq, Kobe, Big **** Bob, Fish, Fox. Coaching in the NBA is overrated I feel like. Some may disagree but it's a players league and they do what they do and sometimes some of them may respect the Coach but not always. Kobe will give Phil credit for some of the success but while it was going on Phil couldn't control the ****. That's why Shaq had to go. Jerry Krause give Phil a chance out of the CBA and he did get Michael to buy in and share the ball but for the most part I believe they eventually win a chip either way. Just my opinion.
