Is Billy Donovan the best coach ever at a basketball "not first" school?

I was looking over the season results so far and then started looking at his entire time at UF and could not think of another coach that has accomplished more at a "non-basketball" school.
2 NC won
1 NC lost
2 other Final Fours
Lots of Elite 8s
14 of 19 years made the NCAA
6 SEC Championships
4 SEC LOLOL Tournament Championships
Recruits the right way (only one old fool accused him of cheating)
Never had games vacated
Is of high character and represents the University with class
Can you think of another coach not at basketball school that has accomplished more? Is he the GOAT at a "non-blueblood" school?

Maybe, he's been pretty damn good.

Absolute yes. I think Billy is actually the best coach in all of college basketball right now because of that. You are also missing a finals appearance. 2000 yall lost in the championship

Absolutely. And who the frick accused him of cheating?

He's gotta be up there.
Other candidates:
Nolan Richardson
Tom Izzo (assuming Sparty is a "true" football school)
Henry Iba (assuming Okie Lite is a "true" football school)

Tom Izzo at Michigan State could probably give him a run for his money.
1 National Championship
6 Final Fours
8 Elite Eights
12 Sweet 16s
The only two years in his whole stint at MSU that he's missed the NCAA Tournament was his first two (95-96, 96-97). He's been to the tournament every year since.

Roy accused him of cheating to get Miller.
Roy is a jack wagon at a jack wagon cheating school.
Good thread for the future...who cheats more UNC or UK...what do you think?

Well, he's no Anthony Grant, but he's a very good coach.

Maybe not more but with similar results was whoever was coaching at Ohio St. in the 60s.

Michigan State is not a football first school.

Roy Williams is the biggest crook and cheater in college basketball. That shitstain and UNC should have the death penalty in all actuality

He told Mike Miller... You wanna be the next or the first?
Also I think Miller visited in January and everyone was in shorts. Being from ND I think that was a big selling point
Teddy the Pothead is still one of my all time favorite SEC players.
I hate UF more than any school ever. But those two were damn fun to watch

This catastrophe of a season really tarnishes his record but he's still pretty legit.
Finishing with a losing record is pretty piss poor if you've developed that kind of program.
