Gregg Popovich one of the 50 Greatest Coaches of All Time

July 29, 2009
Gregg Popovich one of the 50 Greatest Coaches of All Time



San Antonio Spurs coach Gregg Popovich is No. 49 on Sporting News’ list of sports’ 50 greatest coaches of all-time, as selected by a panel of 118 Hall of Famers, championship coaches and other experts. The 14-page feature is part of the new Sporting News Magazine, which hits newsstands this week.

Popovich, a four-time NBA champion and one of just four coaches with 100 playoff wins, was one of two current NBA coaches to make the list. The other, Phil Jackson, checked in at No. 4.

UCLA’s John Wooden was a runaway No. 1 choice, picking up 57 first-place votes from SN’s panel, which includes seven World Series-winning managers, four Super Bowl champion coaches and the winningest coaches in the NBA, NHL and college basketball. Panelists included: Scotty Bowman, Larry Brown, Whitey Herzog, Tommy Lasorda, Marv Levy, Tom Osborne, Don Shula, Steve Spurrier, Bob Stoops, Pat Summitt, Barry Switzer, Lenny Wilkens and Roy Williams. The full voting panel is below.

Wooden, 98, won a record 10 Division I men’s basketball championships in 12 years. “When I think of Coach Wooden, the first word that comes to mind is execution,” Gail Goodrich, an All-American guard on Wooden’s Bruins teams, writes in the new issue of SN. “We never worried about the opponent, only about how we were going to play.”

Green Bay Packers great Vince Lombardi came in second place in SN’s rankings, picking up 20 first-place votes. Hall of Famer Bart Starr vividly remembers Lombardi’s first speech to the team upon being hired in 1959. Writes Starr in SN: “(He said), ‘Gentlemen, we are going to relentlessly chase perfection, knowing full well we will not catch it because nothing is perfect. But we are going to relentlessly chase it because in the process we will catch excellence.’ He paused for a moment, got up even closer to those of us sitting up front, looked us in the eye and added, ‘I am not remotely interested in being just good.’ Wow.”

Rounding out the top 10 of SN’s list: 3. Bear Bryant (college football), 4. Jackson, 5. Don Shula (NFL), 6. Red Auerbach (NBA), 7. Scotty Bowman (NHL), 8. Dean Smith (college basketball), 9. Casey Stengel (MLB) and 10. Knute Rockne (college football).

Nos. 11-20: 11. Pat Summitt (women’s college basketball), 12. Paul Brown (NFL), 13. Joe Paterno (college football), 14. George Halas (NFL), 15. Chuck Noll (NFL), 16. Bob Knight (college basketball), 17. Joe Gibbs (NFL), 18. Tom Landry (NFL), 19. Mike Krzyzewski (college basketball) and 20. Bill Belichick (NFL).

In addition to current and former coaches, SN’s panel includes a Super Bowl-winning owner (the Steelers’ Dan Rooney), commissioners (the NCAA’s Myles Brand, MLB’s Fay Vincent, the NHL’s John Ziegler) and award-winning broadcasters (Brent Musburger, Ernie Harwell, Marty Brennaman), The complete panel is below.

SN turned to former players of the top 20 coaches on the list, asking each to relive a moment that best defined their greatness. Among the guest contributors: Hall of Famers Dwight Stephenson (on Bryant), Paul Warfield (on Shula), Tommy Heinsohn (on Auerbach), Luc Robitaille (on Bowman), Ara Parseghian (on Rockne), Mike McCormack (on Brown), Gale Sayers (on Halas), Lynn Swann (on Noll), Isiah Thomas (on Knight) and Roger Staubach (on Landry).

The new Sporting News Magazine, also featuring a special conversation between star running backs Jim Brown and Adrian Peterson, hits newsstands later this week and can be purchased at all Barnes & Noble, Borders and Hudson Retail outlets. All questions and requests should be directed to editor-in-chief Jeff D’Alessio at jdalessio@sportingnews.com.
