Coach K vs Bill Self

I'm shocked knowledgeable fans like you fell for that fraud Duke. "They'd kill you with a full squad! Tatum blows Jackson away! Blah blah etc etc

WHo are you talking about? Everyone on here knows Duke , like KU is a fraud. The title will come from the 3 complete teams left - ZOna , UNC and UK. You can't be a donut and win the title . UK learned that last year. Nova did already ,KU will in a few days.

False. Y'all talked up Dook like crazy. You said they were superior to Kansas. And that's really funny, no?
 
I care more than titles. Stupid to think that title is the only measuring stick.

Also self having one less just means that self is a great coach.

Not sure if anyone is really arguing that.
 
Dang these Chokehawk fans are just embarrassing. They need to act like they've actually been to the second weekend before, which I guess, when you think about it, they don't get there all that much.

Who are you talking about? We hate Duke. We thought they were overrated. None of us complained about Kansas' seeding. We did Duke though.

Also, why did you pick 2000 as the starting point? Random year that just happens to be after K's Duke team won five games and got to the national title game in 1999. Maybe judge from when Self has been at Kansas?

30-11
Two national championships
Same number of Final Fours

Add this year's tourney and it's tied at 31-12, two Final Fours but one national title difference.

But if you want to tack on Self's Illinois and Tulsa stuff then you should count Coach K's stuff from the 1990s.
 
Fair point. Cal and Self = same. 1 title each

I'd say they're about at the same level except Cal has had more Final Fours and title game appearances.

Self's Final Fours
2008
2012

Cal's Final Fours
1996 (UMass)
2008 (Memphis) Not power five programs
2011
2012
2014
2015

Chmp game appearances
Self- 2008, 2012
Cal- 2008, 2012, 2014

If titles are the measuring stick then yeah, call them equal but it really discounts how much more success Cal has had at getting to the final weekend of the tourney.
 
I picked 2000 since that's when Self went to Tulsa. The fact he ties K with a win Thursday, over such a lonnnnnng 18 year period, with some of that time at lesser programs...... is impressive


I doubt many here know these stats

I don't believe I have ever in my life talked up Duke , so your incorrect !! I think K is a complete hypocrite, and Self in just a liar and runs a dirty program so there ! Did your thugs make it back to the dorms with out trying to beat any young ladies ass or kick their cars this time ?
