I Never Thought I'd RACK Coach K - cLaY - 06-27-2005

until i saw his American Express commercial air just now, about the Detroit Pistons winning a Championship last year and winning it without a super star as a team. That is very RACKable in lilght of SA winning last week.

coach K will retire the greatest college coach EVAH!

I Never Thought I'd RACK Coach K - cLaY - 06-27-2005

no way, John Wooden is the greatest college coach ever, hands down.

10 rings by wooden is crazy but once K gets 6 or 7 under the current recruiting conditions people will recognize him as the greatest ever.The scary thing is the guys got another 15 years to do it.

I think it was the Stanford Cardinal...but I'm prolly wrong.

I Never Thought I'd RACK Coach K - BIRD33 - 06-27-2005

Nope.

Houston U. ???

I Never Thought I'd RACK Coach K - Anhil8tor - 06-27-2005

How many teams were in the tourney back then? Was it 64?

How many ranked teams did he play during that streak? Can you imagine if duke or north carolina would make it 44 games(1/2 of what wooden did) in the ACC?

so does cLaY, but he put the Detroit Pistons championship team in a Mastercard commercial a week after the Spurs won. I laughed a little, then I cried.
