There's great and then there's great.

One great coach wins the NCAA championship then sends more first round picks to the next NBA draft than another great coach sends after nine seasons.

Time for The John Wooden Excuse.

Oh ok, thanks. I figured this was directed at Alvy.

Dixon won a Championship this year right?

In ACC country, they consider Dixon to be a very strong coach.

Kentucky fans should enjoy it while it lasts. Cal's accomplishments usually only last, as you said, about three years. Jamie Dixon's CBI (is that the right acronym?) championship will last forever.

Indeed. A fine role model and credit to the coaching profession. Unlike great coaches, Pat Summit has gone out and got the job done once or twice. Oh, wait. That's right- at least, what?- 8 times?

What's this Alvy kid yapping about now? Don't bother. I don't care what he has on his "mind." Judging from his comment, he holds some sort of obsession with me, and of course, I'm disinterested.

WWD was his original name. Sort of like Ali's Clay.

Krwap year? How 'bout krway CAREER. What's the guy done that MATTERED? Come tourney time, his teams barely show up. This year, they didn't bother showing up for the season and players bailed on him.

At least Calipari's guys stuck around a SEASON.
