According to the broadcast last night, JJ is only 9 wins behind Coach Blakely for most victories ever at NT(I might recheck that just to make sure). Obviously Bill Blakely did it in far fewer games(134-85), so I wouldn't call JJ our best coach ever or anything - but that's still a great accomplishment. Unless we win the National Title or something we're not gonna get JJ those wins next year, but it's a mark he should be passing sometime in December next season I'd guess.

Wanna start a new thread? "Countdown to Bill Blakely."

Probably need a "Countdown to .500" thread, too.

I'm all for countdowns with a reasonable length. I'm gonna forget the ".500" and "2000" ones - we're many, many years away from either. We could conceiveably make the Final Four before we get to either one. :lol: (Sure not likely, but look at George Mason)

I may start one for Coach Jones next year, but that was one that was more George and Hank inspired from last evening.
