Is Sam Harp one of the top 100 coaches in the Nation?:confused:

^ Nope...

There may not be a Top-One-Hundred coach in the state of Kentucky. Its hard to say since these guys work in totally different environments and hardly ever play against each other. Its hard enough discussing who are the best coaches in the state.

Maybe you missed the intent of my post. The question was is Harp a top 100 coach in the nation, my response was who knows. How could you tell? Its hard enough to pinpoint the top guys in the state (Harp may certainly be one). Whats the best stat to base it on? Wins? Championships? Winning percentage? Who knows? I don't.

If you base it on class and character, I cannot imagine 100 coaches anywhere being better, based upon my knowledge of him.

Class and character rests in the eyes of the beholder.

base it on any one of the three and you have a solid case.

It's so subjective unless you base it upon statistics of some combination. In my mind, the things that make a great coach are often hard to quantify. Class, ethics, motivator, encourager, maximizes talent available by getting the most out of each player, capable of getting the team to play together as a unit, etc.
