I like Bo myself....Always has his team in the mix.
1. Bo Ryan
2. Larry Brown (SMU, really?)
3.Tony Bennett
4. Mike Brey
5. Either Greg marshall or the Northern Iowa coach
Clear answer #1 would be Brad Stevens if he was still at Butler. Anyone can win with 6 McDonald All Americans and all of those guys stock has dropped since high school. Example, the harrisons.
Lifetime award goes to Izzo. Sorry but Coach K and Calipari don't do it for me. They just pick and choose who they want for the most part.

If youre a fan of a specific team and you just want ur team to win - then the only thing that matters is recruiting - who is the best used car salesman - that's Calipari, K, Williams, Boeheim, Pitino and Donovan - not saying if talent was the equal they'd win but they typically have better talent
Agree w/ Seymour. In CBB there are recruiters and there are coaches. Most of the "great" coaches are also "great" recruiters. As pointed out by Vlad, Stevens proved he was a heck of a coach. Winning at Butler would be like making the new CFB playoffs at Central Michigan. There are a lot of "great" coaches who don't get the recognition of some of the traditional powerhouse schools coaches do.
Donovan's recruiting is way overrated....and it's showing this year. He has 6 transfers on his roster right now. SIX! (Seven if you count his son, who transferred from Catholic University). You only get 13 scholarships in men's basketball!
He took the his last 4 teams to the Final 8 three times and then last year to the Final 4. Florida is a football school w/ a mediocre gym/arena. He's done a heck of a job there and has proven he is a great "coach". When he won the NC w/ Horford, Noah, and Brewer that team wasn't even ranked in the preseason.
Yep, Bo is a great coach. Especially winning with crackers. That is fucking crazy.
Hey, quick question, how many rings does Phil Jackson have? 9? 10? 12? I lost count
Hey, quick question, who played for Jackson: Era 1: Jordan/Pippen ; Era 2: Kobe/Shaq
PERIOD.
Same goes for Calipari, IMO. I love Calipari, but he's playing cards and he's already got 4 fucking aces. Is it his fault he's a great fuckign recruiter?
No.
But X's and O's:
Bo Ryan > Calipari
Brad Stevens > Calipari
Brad Stevens > Chefchefskiing
Tony Bennett (another guy drawing up honkey basketball game plans and winning in a brothers' game)
Izzo = great coach
And does anybody else think Bayhomo or Beyheim is a great coach? He's like the most overrated fucking coach ever. Well, not really, but he's inflated as fuck. Guy gets loaded up with fucking talent and can only win one ring. And he only got that because he had a perennial NBA All-Star in Anthony who got him the ring. No Anthony = No ring for Beyheim.
Same goes for the former manic coach of Marquette (current Indiana coach). No Dwayne Wade and that guy aint winning shit.
In the end, this is a good way to assess a coach's abilities. If they've only won when the cupboard is full, I mean, really, how good are they?
Fucking Brad Stevens pulled dinosaurs out of a thimble with jack shit for talent and to went to back-to-back championship games. Beyheim gets loaded up every year with massive talent and then sucks a dick like a Hollywood street tranny at Eddie Murphy's house after a trip to In-and-Out Burger.
