The greatest winner there ever was in college sports. When you think Wooden, you think Bill Russell and Red Aurbach. And there's no one else.

In terms of greatest coaches pound-for-pound, there are better. But none won like Wooden.

NO QUESTION! Both here WAY ahead of their time! The thing with Wooden, that has been said so many times...he was not only a great coach, he was a GREAT human being! It wasn't about just basketball with Wooden...it was about life!
