    George Popovich. Greatest Water Polo coach of all time.

    In an era where "super teams" are bought there's been one constant.. San Antonio Spurs.

    Of those 6, Pop.

    Regardless of what your opinion of women's basketball is, Geno Auriemma's success at UConn has just been ridiculous.

    If it's my era, then it's probably Doc Counsilman.
    If it's our era, I find it difficult to argue against Popovich or Belichik
    Next Reds manager, second shooter. --Confirmed on Redszone.

    Might have been a homer call, but I am surrounded by NCAA banners and giant photographs of his greatest Olympic swimmers every lap I take at the pool on campus. One would be hard pressed to find a coach who's legacy was a changed sport and an entire scientific discipline.

    If you're going there, you've almost got to go with Dan Gable.
