The three numbers that coaches are judged on, like it or not, are, in order:
Championships (2)
Final Fours (4)
Total Wins (642)
Current leaders,
Championships: John Wooden: 10
Final Fours: Coach K 13
Total Wins: 1,202
i believe Jay Wright will coach 15 more years. I am projecting 23 wins a season, 3 Final Four Appearances and 2 more National Championships. This will be his final numbers:
Championships: 4
Final Fours 7
Total Wins: 987
If my numbers are correct, here is where Jay would rate in this categories:
Champinoships: Tied for 3rd with Adolp Rupp. Behind only Coach K and John Wooden. More than Calhoun, Bobby Knight and Roy Williams!
Final Fours: Tied for 6th. Behind Coach K, John Wooden, Deab Smith, Roy Williams, and Tom Izzo. Tied with Rick Pitino, who currently has an asterik.
Total Wins: 3rd behind Coach K and Jim Boheim. Is likely that Bob Huggins, John Calipari and a few other eclipse that number.
Jay is a true legend of the game already! I believe John Wooden is tainted, and these accomplishments will put Jay on track to be the second greatest college basketball coach of al ltime.
