I hope this is your attempt at sarcasm.

Drank Coke all my life and never been close to overweight. You might have a chunky issue if you have to watch what you consume so close. I love when fat people try to advise in diet.

Could be argued that Nolan Richardson is the greatest college basketball coach of all time. Richardson is the only coach in basketball history to win a D1 National Title, NIT National Title, and a Junior College National championship.

All while avoiding FBI investigations…

Billy Donovan has had a better career, completely built a program in the SEC, and is younger.

He is great right now. But I wouldn’t consider him an all time great just yet. He not on the same level as Dean Smith or Pat Summit. Can he get on that level, I think so. But it’s gonna take more than couple #1 and couple tournament appearances. He needs to win SEC multiple times sprinkled with some Nattys. I absolutely would love to have Bruce back in Knoxville and he will continue to do great things. But he not an all time great just yet. The all time greats didn’t lead to multiple teams being investigated by NCAA and receiving sanctions. He was fired by UT for misleading an NCAA investigation which led to a show cause. If I’m not mistaken I think he has had trouble with the NCAA at every single stop.

He probably thought it would get censored which makes the post look off.

I went to John Wooden's camp when I was in 8th grade at Cal Lutheran. Great experience and I cherish my picture with him.

One Final Four appearance and no National Title is greatest of all time?

Tell me you know nothing about college hoops without saying you know nothing about college hoops.

The job he has done at AU is truly remarkable as you said.

Yes. Best ever.

At some point, he’s bound to win 8 or 9 championships in a row.

Perhaps you should Google the name John Wooden.

Coach K at Duke and the womens coach at UConn are the best college basketball coaches ever. Phil Jackson in the NBA. I would put Cal and Pitino above Pearl as well.

A lady named Pat Summitt would like a word with you.

She didn't inherit a team. She drove the van to away games and washed the team's uniforms.

She built a powerhouse and is hands down the best basketball coach at any level and of any gender.
