Some should have more titles than they have, others have exactly the right amount.

Correct answer is Fran McCaffrey.
Now let Iowa win the f***ing national championship, damn you all........

I’m going with Cal. His seat is getting room temperature.
10 years qualifies for a while.
While others will troll with a single FF run, it's different for some teams. We want the goods.
It’s been ten years after this season since our last title. Cal should have more than one by now anyways.
Bill should have more due to his coaching ability. Not necessarily the talent. He doesn’t have his pick of the litter like K and Calipari.
We’ve been told that he has the dominant team in the field. And he is in his 60s, after all. Could be now or never. Title or bust!
It has to be Cal. If you get that much talent, you should win a title every six to eight years
In all seriousness, it’s pretty sad that K and Calipari combine for zero final fours since 2015. Two HOF coaches who can get virtually any player they want. If a few of those teams needed a vet or two, that’s on them. They certainly could’ve had them.
Do you not think Self is on on their level? HOF, Blue blood coach etc.
He's got a '18 final four, but how long has he been at KU now?
I mean Kevin Ollie has the same amount of natties as self and calipari. As arrogant as those fanbases are you would expect more
Imagine coaching for decades and having less than Ollie.
I mean if Bruce Pearl could have coached at a place where the previous coach won 3 national titles and left him a very good roster he would probably have one as well. He would maintained it also.
Hypotheticals are fun.
Didn’t uconn basically cost cal two more natty’s? 2011 and 2014
Yep. Not only Cal but all the other coaches as well on those years.
Yeah, crazy to think Self, Cal & K only have ONE final four since start of 2016 season- and KU got crushed that game.
As arrogant as you are, I'd expect more than one decent tourney run in your program's history.
As a coach, sure.
But if one guy rarely gets the players he wants and the next guy gets almost every player he wants...who should you expect more from?
So you give Self a pass for his recruiting?
He's not winning it all with his recruiting either.
"If my coach had your recruits.....we'd win it all every year". Eyeroll
Even if the NCAA trouble is partially his fault, it's still a lot to overcome. It's like going to battle with an arm tied behind his back.
I still think he should have more titles. He's also had some pretty shitty luck. Imagine if they had cancelled the 2012 tourney.
For the record- just my opinion- think UK was bigger favorites entering the 12 tourney then KU would have been if the 20 tourney was played..
To me,Its Few....Only thing missing. IMO, he wins it, and it cements his name at the elite/big boy table.
I don't think it's that crazy on Self's part. The recruiting struggles have been real. They've missed on seemingly 95% of their top targets over the last several years. They did manage to put together a good '22 class. We'll see how that pans out.
A pretty dominant Nova team kept him out of the Final Four in '16. Arguably his best player of that period (Udoka) played in the tourney once in his four years. A roster that was #1 and undefeated through 10 games in '19 was decimated midseason. And of course his best shot was denied in '20.
Few is an odd one to me. I either see him never winning or winning multiple in a five year span. I also don't know if he will get a better chance to start that than this year.
Agree....Could be he gets that first one, and then all the suddden, dude goes on Jay Wright on us.
His teams the past 5=6 seasons, have certainly been good enough. This years team IMO, is gonna be a monster inthe NCAAT. Holgremn might only weigh a tad more than a pillow, but he's legit...Add Timme, and they have a very, very good f/c...Hickman starting to play well.
I'd put Mark Few on the top of that list. He's been knocking on the door for awhile.
Few is probably the best coach without a title so that's a good shout. Shame he didn't pull it off in 2017
