Who are the current college coaches who will be HOF coaches

[Alsacs]

Coach K
Roy Williams
Boeheim
Calipari
Self

Are the current HOF coaches already in what other current coaches right now would you call future HOFers.
I think
Wright- Villanova
Few- Gonzaga are future locks

Others to consider
Sampson- Houston
Kruger- Oklahoma
Beilein- Michigan
Barnes- Tennessee

Am I missing anyone?
I say this because we have to realize current coaches aren’t going to be like the 1980s Big East where everyone had a stud HC.

I guess I don't see it with Lon Kruger. He's been successful at places like Florida, Ok, etc. but I view him more as a longevity guy than an exceptional coach.

Not sure that Sampson has done enough to warrant HOF consideration, and he's got a substantial black mark on his candidacy.

I think Beilein is a great coach and will eventually get to the HOF, if he hasn't accomplished enough already.

Barnes has been successful at numerous stops, too, although I also see him a little like Kruger. Very good coach, though. Maybe just not an elite one.

I think the two titles cements Wright's ticket getting punched.

I just remembered Bob Huggins-WVU.
He is a guy for consideration.

Huggins gets in on gameday attire alone.

There's something to be said for comfort clothing.

Police: "Mr. Huggins, how many drinks have you had tonight?"

Huggins: "Yes."

Bennett is going to make it.
Beilein will too.

A big part is how long they want to coach at the college level and how long schools are willing to employ them. That might hurt Bobby Hurley; he is going to have a hard time surviving.

Bob Huggins has a good chance. So does Dana Altman.

I wouldn't be shocked if Tubby Smith is inducted. 600+ wins. A NC. Multiple conference championships. Of course, I wouldn't be surprised if he's overlooked, either. He's always been underappreciated, IMO, but he does have a nice resume.

Huggins: "Yes."

For some reason the way I view Huggins has done a total 180 over the past 20 years or so. I hated him when he was at Cincy, but now I really like him.

Seems like a lot of college coaches in the Hall of Fame? Do other major sports honor as many of their coaches?

Keep in mind we're talking like 350+ teams compared to 120 in college football and 30 in pro sports.

The BB hall of fame is different. It encompasses all levels of the game--pro, college, international, men's and women's, and maybe even high school (Wooten/Hurley, Sr?).

Cliff Ellis

Wright, Few, Donovan (not current), Stevens (not current), T. Smith. I could see Beilein and Huggins getting in if they get to another final four or two.

I do know Wooten is in the HOF.
