Some people in this thread are seriously misremembering his LSU tenure. He squandered more talent than anyone in the nation.

LSU had an overall losing record in basketball before Brown took over and had only had four winning seasons in the previous 18 years before he came. He went 17 straight years without having a losing season at one point and went to 13 NCAA tournaments including 10 straight NCAA tournaments. Very few coaches have ever accomplished going to that many consecutive NCAA tournaments. And a number of people feel that if Rudy Macklin wouldn't have hurt his shooting hand before the Final Four that LSU would have won it all. Injuries are part of the game though.
Brown never won it all and stayed a few years too long, but he took a piece of shite program and turned it into a really exciting program and an overall winner.
