Just to get it started....

Bill Belichick -- Wesleyan

Brad Stevens -- DePauw

Salem State -- Tom Thibodeau

Kenyon -- Shaka Smart

FYI...Coven from Brandeis made SI's Faces in the Crowd in Sept. 28 issue for 500th win.  Pretty cool.

Dan Rothert-Loras College  515-175-44 for a .732 winning percentage in 18 seasons, I consider that great

After seeing his behavior after the 2012 NCAA Final 4 and his teams behavior after that game I was shocked to say the least. However, maybe it was a one off and I will give him a break. I really do enjoy the way Loras plays and how the players seem to work for a coach they truly like. That say's a lot.

Not sure what you're referring to.  I don't recall any misconduct.

Hotel after their Semi-Final loss..Let's just say sh*t faced is an understatement which is understandable to a degree for the players but the coach was well on his way to the gutter..No biggie..Just a one off

Scott Frey, Messiah College women's soccer. In his 15 seasons at the helm, his teams have collected an astounding 318-17-17-- a winning percentage of .928 that makes him the winningest active NCAA Division III coach-- among men's or women's soccer-- with 10 or more years of experience.  Frey's teams have earned five NCAA Division III National Championships, including two-straight in 2011 and 2012. Altogether across his 15 years at Messiah, Frey's teams have advanced to 14 NCAA Championships and ten "Final Fours." They have finished as the national runner-up three times.  This year 10-0-1,  keeping it going!

Camden players tried to get the Messiah players to go out with them after losing the 2013 National Championship to Messiah in San Antonio. I don't think the Falcons took them up on their offer. But I also don't think it is an uncommon event for players or coaches at any level to "hit the bottle" so to speak after losing, especially after a deep run like that. If anything it was more likely a celebration of the season's accomplishments.

Not that it justifies inappropriate behavior! Was just a thought. Now lets get back to the coaching greats from D3!

Understandable, but I would hardly call what I witnessed a celebration of a season, more a mockery of their own school...It's one thing to go out on the Riverwalk and come back in to the hotel and pass out, its another to get sh*tfaced in the hotel lobby for 3-4 hours...

Not surprising Messiah passed....lol.....That was my guess as to why Danny Brandt transferred so quickly out of Louisville after witnessing the Spring debauchery of the Louisville players, he wanted nothing to do with it. Just a hunch

Very good hunch. I agree.
