April 1, 20188 yr I heard it discussed last weekend, and I'm sure it's going to come up even more between now and Monday. Is John Beilein a Hall-of-Fame coach? Please discuss …
April 1, 20188 yr Yes. John Chaney, Charles “Lefty” Dreisell, and Guy V Lewis are in. Stands to reason Beilein is in.
April 1, 20188 yr Author Yes. John Chaney, Charles “Lefty” Dreisell, and Guy V Lewis are in. Stands to reason Beilein is in. Help me out here, because I think you're comparing apples and oranges given the eras your 3 worked compared to Beilein. Please elaborate.
April 1, 20188 yr Not sure about eras, but Chaney and the Lefthander never made it to a Final Four and are in...
April 1, 20188 yr Louie Carnesecca and Ray Meyer (I Final 4 apiece and no finals appearances). Marv Harshman and Ralph Miller in.
April 1, 20188 yr 1 top 10 recruiting class in the past 8 years. 1 was 107th. 2 Championship game appearances in that same time span.
April 1, 20188 yr HOf’s were originally meant for the truly elite. Problem is there are so few truly elite that they have to put great but not elite players, coaches in. Everyone mentioned are good, great, not elite. Not sure how you make a HOF if you haven’t won the prize. Sure some will disagree and that’s fine. Just my opinion.
April 1, 20188 yr Meant to bring in paying customers..not actuallly honor the truly elite. Is that your point? It was mine. So with Beilein, why not. If he somehow wins Monday night, I’ll change my tune on him completely.
April 1, 20188 yr Louie Carnesecca and Ray Meyer (I Final 4 apiece and no finals appearances). Marv Harshman and Ralph Miller in. Actually I think he had 2 cause I think DePaul and George Mikan made it once in the 40's.
April 1, 20188 yr Yes. John Chaney, Charles “Lefty” Dreisell, and Guy V Lewis are in. Stands to reason Beilein is in. Guy Lewis was also a pioneer by defying the state of Texas and playing some great African-American players that the big State schools wouldn't recruit because of their color.
April 2, 20188 yr The guy is a good coach, but IMO he needs a championship to get in the HOF. I really like him and hope he pulls this one out.
April 2, 20188 yr I'm a huge Beilein fan. Not sure he's a HOF coach just yet, but he wins tonight and he's got it on lock IMO. If he was a bit younger, I'd love if he ended up replacing Coach Cal when he leaves Kentucky.
