I don't know the answer to these questions but consider;  1) how many coaches have coacher 36 years?  or have over 800 wins?  2) how many coaches have been to the tournament as many times as JB?  3) how many have better winning percentages in the tournament?  Consider only those who have been there say 10 times?  4) how many have been [U][B]to[/B][/U] the sweet 16 seventeen times?  5) how many who have gotten [U][B]by[/B][/U] the sweet sixteen have gotten to the final 4 more than JB?  My point is that these successes (and they are sucesses!) don't happen by chance or mistake.    The guy has to be a good coach or a good recruiter or both to achieve what JB has achieved.  Is he the best?  Probably not.  Will he get past your "landmark" or "check point" this year? Impossible to say.  Look what happened a few years ago.  Everthing looked rosie then a injury to AO ruined it all.  Not to say the Butler would have caved against AO either.  We have aready seen that take one cog out of the current team and they could struggle.  That cog doesn't have to be Fab.  It could be Kieta as Fab's back up.  Or KJ or scoop or Dion, or CJ.  If just about any of 9 or all 10 goes down at the wrong time, then the season could come crashing down suddenly.
