Just keep winning and he'll get it. Players plus a little moody madness can make it happen.

John Beilein, Michigan; Tony Bennett, Virginia; Larry Brown, SMU; Jim Crews, Saint Louis; Mick Cronin, Cincinnati; Billy Donovan, Florida; Steve Fisher, San Diego State; Gregg Marshall, Wichita State; Greg McDermott, Creighton; and Jay Wright, Villanova.

LB definitely has potential to come out on top. Who are the voters exactly?

Definitely in the top 5 of that list. Jim Crews at Saint Louis has done a good job as well as obviously Gregg Marshall-although Wichita has a pretty cupcake schedule.

No one has done more THIS YEAR than LB. All those teams had some things already in place (I'm thinking specifically about Wichita, Creighton, Nova, and SDSU). I don't know much about St Louis though.

This would be pretty special for Coach Brown if he won.

Henry Iba coached him in the 1964 Olympics.
