If you think Cal is still doing this, you aren't paying attention. We started two graduate seniors, a junior, a sophomore, and one freshman.

This. Cal is the most successful coach in the conference bar none, and he has said repeatedly that his days of signing and starting five freshmen are over.

Would probably rank in terms of national championships so

1) Calipari


Huge Gap

2) Pearl
3) Barnes
4) Oats
5) Florida Coach whose name escapes me
6) Beard



15) a tie between A&M and South Carolina's coach at a given time.



If you had all the SEC coaches available to hire tomorrow your pick would be Calipari?


And here is why this post is fricking retarded:

Florida Coach whose name escapes me -- Billy Donnavan you tards.

6 - Reg. Season SEC Champs
4- SEC Conf Tournament Champs
14 NCAA Tournament Appearances
4 - Final Fours
2 - National Championships back-to-back.

Donavan isn’t coaching in the conference now, mentally disadvantaged one…

Either Pearl or Oats. The latter mainly because he's only 50.

Golden, Oats, or Beard -- because we have BP. I just wish he was 20 years younger. Pope is one to keep an eye on.

The truth is, you don't get 14 teams in the NCAAT without an emphasis on basketball and that starts with the head coach. Given the abysmal state of AU basketball after the Barbee error, I'm not sure anyone other than BP could have done what he has done. It took him a few years, but he brought hope with the quickness.

Here is the top 10 if you want one to coach 5-7 years.

1. Oats
2. Beard
3. Golden
4. Pearl
5. Barnes
6. Calipari
7. Jans
8. White
9. Pope
10. Gates

No one can escape time. Pearl, Calipari and Barnes are all 65-70 years old and very well may not even coach another 7 years.

Cal brought the whole 5 star Kentucky roster to Arkansas after Jerry Jones offered to double what Kentucky was paying them.

Jonas Aidoo 4*
Trevon Brazile 4*
Johnell Davis 4*
Boogie Fland 4*
Zvonimir Ivisic 4*
Karter Knox 4*
D.J Wagner 5*
Adou Thiero 4*
Billy Richmond III 4*

I don't see very many five stars on this team.

John Tyson aka the chicken man pays for basketball.

Assuming Pearl isn't an option since he already coaches my favorite school, I would go:
Golden
Oats
Beard
Cal
Jans
