Was he equal to Coach Bear Bryant in his time?
His PreWooden dynasty was amazing and would have been even more so if not for outside issues at the time.

They coached together 7 years. He was the Baron of college basketball.

Yep, and Bryant said one of the reasons he left Kentucky was the year Rupp won the SEC BB trophy and Bryant won the SEC FB trophy - at the annual awards dinner, Rupp got a new Cadillac and Bryant got a new watch.

Rupp is a fascinating person.

Didn't read anything but the title but I'm assuming this thread is about his racism.

No, please lets keep this about his career and how he compared to legends like Bryant and other big names.

Bryant was way less rasisst than Adolf. I like Bear.

You should go research who the coach was who integrated the SEC before you post. Idiot.
Go see how your stupid OT thread is going.

LSU fan here, but I was so disappointed when Rupp's Runts lost the 1966 NCAA championship game. I wish they would have had a couple of days rest after beating Duke in the semi-final, but back then they played the semi-finals and finals on consecutive nights. (I think)
I was a small kid, but well remember Louie Dampier and Pat Riley when UK came to BR in '67. Dampier was deadly from the corner.
Got Coach Rupp's autograph after the game. Hope I still have it somewhere.
He was a legend. The Baron of the Bluegrass.
