December 7, 200619 yr My favorite Knight moment was the press conference when he demonstrated his "game face". That was funny when he did that :lol: Actually though he was trying to make a "donkey" out of a reporter he really made one of himself.
December 7, 200619 yr Let's not lose sight of the fact that the Baron has 163 fewer losses however. A fact seldom mentioned. And an 82% win percentage.......compared to 76% of Smith and around 71% of Knight.....so I still think the Baron is number 1......
December 7, 200619 yr Anyone know Dean Smith's win %?? Just Curious...879-254, .776% Some other, interesting facts about Coach Dean Smith Coach Dean Smith
December 7, 200619 yr Can anyone research the following: Bobby Knight's age (I know how many wins he has) Coack K's age AND number of wins I would but I've got to get out the door. Thanks in advance!
December 7, 200619 yr Knight will never hold a candle to Rupp. This was said before but Rupp has 163 fewer losses than Knight. End of Story. While not disputing Rupp's greatness, I think it is necessary to take off the big blue glasses and look at this objectively. Rupp amassed his wins in a time when the competition was not what it is today. The only real threat for recruiting he had was Wooden at UCLA. In today's game, to have the win total and winning percentage Knight has is awesome. If Rupp were coaching today, while I believe he would have a better team than Tubby currently has, I think you would see him falling in line w/ Coach K, Knight, Smith, Donovan, and the rest of the top coaches of today.
December 7, 200619 yr Thanks cville, by the way.........Great new avatar! :thumb: (they start learning the basics young in the Buckeye nation. ) :thumb: :lol:
