He won four NCAA championships, won the 1946 NIT when it was equal to the NCAA and was undefeated AP National champion in 1954.

So start that hockey team if you can win the Stanley Cup.

As one guy said Ky basketball “it was like starting a hockey league in Texas” during Rupp’s years. He was on his way out before schools got serious about BB.
I've said similar about UK hoops but I was wrong. Rupp was dominating basketball on a national level almost from his start and was half of an olympic team. I believe he would have risen above any league.

I had a negative view of the man until recently learning more about him and have switched to a positive opinion.
