Wooden won in an era where men’s basketball was similar to what women’s basketball was 20-25 years ago. Not much parity. Tournament field was smaller. Freshmen couldn’t play. Conferences could only send one team to the tournament until 1975.
Once the tournament expanded and more teams took basketball seriously, the field leveled off.
I feel like this doesn't get said enough when it comes to ranking these coaches. Wooden and UCLA were incredible but winning TODAY is way more impressive IMO.

remember Duke was coming off a trip to the Elite 8 in 80 with Gene Banks, Mike Gminski, Kenny Dennard, Vince Taylor, etc. coached by Bill Foster who coached them to the NCAA Finals in 78
Damn
I don’t remember that, must have been awesome to see this team in person though
