ESPN has done a countdown of the top 50 College Basketball Coaches, today was Tom Izzo at #3, meaning the Top 2 will be Billy D and Cal.

Who would you rather have?

I pick Donavan, he has won more titles, gone to more Final Fours, and has no known NCAA violations or sanctions against him. He might not be able to recruit as well but give him Kentucky's roster last year and I bet they do better than an 8 seed.

Donovan is better suited for UF, while Calipari is better suited for UK.

I don't think either would be as successful if they flipped places.

As far as winning, you probably can't go wrong with either. But despite the fact that Billy won't have as many "elite" teams as Cal at UK, the program is just so respected right now for doing things the right way and still winning - and that is just awesome.

He represents the University very well.

Too many questions about Cal.

Donavan isn't a piece of shite like Calipari, so Donavan.
