He is a coach who will never make it to the Final Four. His style will win games, but not the important ones.
So kinda like Norm Stewart?
Cmon man, I don't think he's jesus but he was one game away with Mizzou and two games with UAB. Who knows what happens when the ball bounces differently....

I recognize both Norm Stewart and Mike Anderson as good coaches, not great or elite ones though. Their differing styles won games, but never pushed over the edge. Norm's teams always played hard on defense, crashed the glass, but seemingly never had that guard/wing player that could take over a game with a mismatch. Anderson's Mizzou teams usually struggled against elite big men with the smarts to slow the tempo of the game. UConn in the Elite Eight in 2009 comes to mind. Hasheem Thabeet destroyed us, even though we played excellent, there was no way we were going to win that game.
