Wrong, he won two in 1985 and 1991.
When Brown was hired in 1972 he began to steadily build the program for four years until he could contend with the better teams. The last four years were sunk by Livingston's knee injuries and the Lester Earl imbroglio. The 15 years in between were the best era of consistent excellence.

You say this dismissively like it was some unavoidable act of God when in fact it was one of the most stupid displays of hubris in sports history. Yeah, he built the program. And then he single-handedly destroyed it. That makes his legacy as a coach a push. At the point when he left I was still somewhat fond of him due to the exciting moments he produced prior to his well deserved downfall but his legacy as a former coach is beyond reprehensible. Let Dick Vitale name his next box of Depends after Dale. That would be fitting.
