Who is the best college basketball coach right now?

[UNIGuy4Cy]

Was wondering what everyone thought. If ISU offered any coach in college basketball, I would take Tom Izzo or Calipari. I think Scott Drew is the best up and comer.

 

[The_Architect]

Izzo.

I'll go with the guy that's been to 6 Final Fours in the last 12 years, many of those teams not being the best team in the nation...




(that would be Izzo, for those that weren't catching on)

 

[ca4cy]

Another vote for Izzo.

 

[ruxCYtable]

I don't know. I just asked around the office and the consensus was Fran McCaffery.

 

[thatguy]

Izzo for sure

Izzo

 

[cyclonedave25]

His last name rhymes with Bizzo.

 

[Knownothing]

Coach Calipari. He is a cheater but he cheats better than anyone.

 

[Cloner007]

H to the Izzo

 

[Clones85']

Coach Calipari. He is a cheater but he cheats better than anyone.

And never wins. Can't be the best without winning

Either Izzo or Roy (puke)

 

[Drive4cy]

Izzo. He just gets it done.

 

[CYdTracked]

Izzo, Coach K (leads all active coaches in wins right now and 4th all time and will probably retire as #1 when its all said and done), and Roy Williams rank right up there for me. You can put Jim Calhoun, Jim Boeheim, Bob Huggins, Rick Pitino, and Bo Ryan in the conversation too probably just based off their career wins and conference and national title resumes.

 

[JD720]

Coach Calipari. He is a cheater but he cheats better than anyone.

He can't be that good at cheating if he keeps having final four's taken away.

Can I wait 'till Monday to answer?

 

[IcSyU]

Izzo, Few, Stevens, Thuggins, Roy, Calipari, Boeheim, Smith, K, Pitino, Self

 

[RhoadsRage]

Top 5 in no particular order....
Izzo
Coach K
Boeheim
Calipari
Pitino
After that.....Gary Williams, Thad Matta, Mark Few, Frank Martin, Bob Huggins, Jay Wright. Probably left some more goods ones out but those guys just off the top of my head.

Gino Torretta. I realize that he is a womens coach, but for God's sake the man can recruit, coach, and win. I think it would be interesting to see if he could translate his success to the mens side of things.

How is his Heisman way back when going to help anything?

Maybe Geno Auriemma?
