From Patrick Rishe of Forbes.com, “As I review John Wooden’s coaching record at UCLA and as I consider the logistics surrounding the economics of college basketball today, I can only draw one conclusion. The legend of John Wooden would never have reached the heights it did had he coached in today’s world of college basketball. In fact, in today’s world of college basketball where the pressures to win have never been higher and parity is more prevalent, it’s not hard to imagine that Wooden may never have won a single NCAA Championship at UCLA had his tenure existed today.”
