  1. Here’s the thing, Coach K, Dean Smith, Roy Williams, Patino, Cal, and this MSU coach get multiple top 100 HS players every year, institutions have millions of dollars, games always on CBS & ESPN so imo they should have multiple final 4 appearances & titles. 🤷🏾‍♂️

  2. Super Elite programs of last 20 years
    UNC, Duke, Kansas, villanova
    Elite programs
    Uconn, florida

  3. Final 4 appearance is still a Regional championship. Izzo has 5th most Final 4s. Out of hundreds of D1 coaches, 15 have won multiple national championships (and only 6 have 3+ titles).

  4. Going to a final four is not the same as getting to the finals in the NBA. The final four is a goal and major accomplishment unto itself, especially for a lesser program. The finals is not viewed in the same light.

  5. I don’t know about this take. I didn’t find anything wrong with the Coach’s Statements. He’s standing up for his players.

  6. Lol the media counts rings and they only did that to start narratives about the coaches and players who ppl love but haven't won a title ..

    Therefore the dumb fans are programmed to think everything is about the title

  7. Tom Izzo constantly overachieves …he does not get elite recruits like the other programs. MSU is usually a decent team and Izzo gets the absolute most out of them.

  8. Izzo is no different than nick Saban to me!
    Over hyped keeps a bunch on NBA ready and NFL players on they team but they get all the credit!

  9. I agree with rob on this I find it interesting us fans and the media members bash player like lebron and Lamar for losing when it matters. But never hold the coaches accountable for doing the same 1 championship with all the talent he’s had to work with just no excuses for any coach to have 1 championship in Sam near 20yrs

  10. 9:30
    Is why I love this show
    If izzo is great what is wooden😂😂😂😂😂😂
    No no no no I’m just saying!
    That’s not what I asked you!😂😂😂😂
    We use great too dam much!

  11. Rob is a hypocrite. Thats why when he was praising dame Lillard for staying and not winning goes against everything he's always stood for

  12. John Thompson coached 27 years at Georgetown and won a single championship. John Chaney coached at Temple for 25 years and won nothing. Rob has nothing to say about them.

  13. Jim Boeheim is one of the most overrated coaches in NCAA history. He won a title with a future hall of famer. He has 3 final fours in 45+ years and he's a great coach? Man don't make me laugh dude is cheeks.

  14. O WOW! Lets keep lowering the bar. These famous Coaches at these perennial college basketball juggernauts, have the brightest spotlight on them every year and thus always GAIN THE TOP RECRUITS. There star players never even consider a HBCU or a Florida Atlantic for that matter, so they have the largest breadbasket of talent to coach. If they had the players some of these HBCU's have, we probably would NEVER have heard of all these so-called great Coaches, who with all the better talent only win once in the last 20 years???? STOP IT!
