- Peak 54: best five-season stretch, 1969–1980 at Arizona and Louisville (21-32).
- Career 56 (#403 since 1936): total accomplishment over 9 seasons (36-61), 0 national titles, 0 elite seasons; full credit for the program he inherited.
Rating = who he is: his whole head-coaching career (since 1936), weighted toward recent years — how far his teams stood above their contemporaries, how much he lifted programs, his great seasons and titles. Form = the last two seasons. Career = the all-time ranking number.
