I had the pleasure of knowing a number of coaches and Sue Gunter was one like no other, pure class....she gets my vote, but Stovall gets one too, all class, mistreated by some at LSU, not sure he was a NC quality coach, but he is a NC person...

Pete Jenkins.......you know he'd have cried his eyes out.

Dale Brown - my favorite coach in any sport at any level.

"I was worried about losing until I looked down the floor and saw Dale Brown," Knight said. "Then I knew we had a chance."
Needless to say, Brown, a hopeless Pollyanna but one not immune to venomous resentfulness, was markedly chafed. So on the night before the title game, he called the hotel room of Providence coach Rick Pitino.
"Rick, I hate Bobby Knight so goddamn much," Brown said, "so much so that I'd like to lend you a valuable coaching tip to use in tomorrow night's game, something straight out of my 'Freak Defense' bag of tricks, and it is this: If Indiana has the ball at the end of the game with a chance to win it, triple-team Steve Alford — he's the only player on their squad who can hit a clutch shot."
Well, as just about any college basketball fan can tell you, Providence indeed prevented Alford from getting the ball in the game's final seconds, only to see Baton Rouge native Keith Smart step up to drill what's been since dubbed "The Shot."
After the game, Dale Brown was seen wandering around the Quarter kicking an empty soup can and mumbling Norman Vincent Peale quotes to himself. True story.

if you are going to make up stories at least make them believable.

Smoke Laval... not because I liked him, most didn't, but because the talent he had on those teams was ridiculous and those guys deserved to win some rings
