A different question for all Hawksquawk posters

[Gray Mule]

Who is your favorite head coach in college or N.B.A.??

There are a lot of good ones out there and also some

great ones who have already retired.

Being a U.T. fan, one of mine is Pat Summit.

Since the Hawks season is over and it's not yet time for

free agency or the draft, here's an idea who's time has

come.

So, who's your favorite ?????

Avery Johnson

in college i like paul hewitt. i'm a tech fan and i like what he's done since cremins left. he's brought in some big time recruits in the last several years and is a great teacher. i hope he stays for a long time.

i don't really have a favorite nba coach (besides WOODY of course). i like d'antoni's coaching style and i liked eric mussleman (former warriors coach).

NBA: Flip Saunders, Avery Johnson, Greg Popovich

NCAA: Roy Williams, Tom Crean, Billy Donovan, Paul Hewitt, John Thompson Jr, Rick Pitino, Jay Wright

[WraithSentinel]

College: Tom Izzo

College, I have always liked Tubby since his days at Tulsa and being a Tech fan, Hewitt is a great fit for me as well.

Now here is a kicker or two, I am a tech fan. I was happy as heck when Tubby took off for greener pastures in Kentucky. At the same time, I have never liked KY basketball. They are just to arrogant for me...

So basically I have not liked any of the schools Tubby has been at since he left Tulsa. Just think he is a great coach.

Hewitt has worked wonders at tech, its just a shame he cannot get a lottery pick type player to stay in school past his freshman year.

NBA, Avery Johnson. Just really like what he has done with Dallas with their new hard nosed approach to team basketball.

NBA - I was a big Lenny Wilkens fan since his days of coaching the Hawks. I admired his ability to get every last bit of talent out of the Hawks teams that he coached.

College - As much as I hate UT (I'm a Dawgs fan for life), Pat Summit has done and continues to do a remarkable job.

Sidney Lowe...

... Just Joking.

My favorite coach of all time are Chuck Daly/Lenny Wilkens.

My favorite coach coaching is Mike Fratello.

My favorite college coach alltime is Nolan Richardson or Tark.

My favorite college coach now is Tubby Smith.

I'm beginning to like Mike Brown...

[1524]

Lawrence Frank, Larry Brown, and Avery Johnson.

[macdaddy]

Wow. Not a single vote for Phil Jackson? And I'm not giving him on either.

Fratello/Hewitt. What can I say I'm a hometown guy.

[drzachary]

Paul Westhead, and there's no other correct answer to this question!

[frosgrim]

College- Jim Calhoun. Anyone that can get city kids to go and play in the cow pasture that is Storrs, Ct. has to be one hell of a recruiter. Plus he teaches the game right to his kids.

NBA- Fratello, just because I am a homer and I miss those mid-80s teams.

[chillzatl]

Jerry Sloan has always been a favorite of mine.

My answer to both: Pete Carrill

[Traceman]

Avery Johnson and Mike D'Antoni for the NBA.

Billy Donovan and Paul Hewitt for college.

I don't think these guys are the best but I like the way their teams go about playing the game. I think Phil Jackson and Mike Kryzewewski are the best.
