    Tom Izzo
    When does he get fired? They have not won anything since 2000. He is a solid coach but needs to step his game up.

      This is funny.

      You can count on one hand the number of college coaches better than Izzo.

        Izzo made the final 4 in 2001 also, after having his 2000 championship team ravaged by graduation

            According to your stats above, he is only 3 years removed from the Final Four. He is headed back to the NCAA Tournament this year, so I think he is doing a good job.

              how many active coaches have a national championship and minimum 4 final four appearances, last one being at latest 2005?

              lets make a list

                  You can go deep into the tourney but when you don't win shit your claim is irrelevant pal.

                        What's the deal with that...i just heard about that today. You have any news on it wassy?

                        There is no way Izzo could go to IND...he's passed up virtually every program and NBA team that has asked about him. I'd be shocked if he left....

                          Iowa didn't renew Tom Davis's Contract for a usual tournament apperance and sometimes a 1st round win, losing in round 2 on a consistant basis...that wasn't good enough....

                          Now we got stuck with the devestation known as what Steve Alford...a overrated coach left us, that didn't pan out and now there trying to just get back to the big dance....

                          I'd say making the tournament is a big deal, I wish Iowa made the tournament...but we suck at bball and football as of late...

                            I don't have any real news on that...just saw his name on the wanted list of wishful thinking Hoosiers. The chance he ends up at IU with sanctions on the way? Aproximately 0%
