Records in Postseason Competition for Active Coaches
|
By Mike Douchant
Conference tournaments occasionally are lost in the shuffle but shouldn't be when considering coaching excellence in pressure situations. No coach rose to the occasion in the previous two years like Michigan State's Tom Izzo, who directed the Spartans to 16 victories in 17 games in the Big Ten Tournament and NCAA playoffs.
Connecticut's Jim Calhoun is the only active coach to win at least two-thirds of his games in the NCAA Tournament, NIT and conference postseason tourneys. Here is a look at how many of the current Division I coaches stack up against each other in overall postseason play through 2000:
