Love him or hate him, Coach K will soon be the most successful coach of the modern era by any standard (wins, Final Fours, championships, conference titles, you name it). I don't think it's hard at all to make the argument that, with the way today's game is structured (early departures, coaching carousel, etc), that puts him right up there with Wooden.

Actually, I agree with that particular decision. Give them a throw-in with the clock stopped and they are far more likely to get a good look at a three point shot.
That was only a small part of the problem; which was actually Greenberg drinking from the Blue Koolaid. I'm not even suggesting he's not the best coach and recruiter of the modern era; I just don't like the fact that he's been this successful while making public displays of his whining to officials.
