A 20-loss season

[Eight Legger]

How often does a coach get to celebrate his 20th season at the same school by losing 20 games in that same season? Quite an accomplishment!

20 for 20 - now selling the rights to ESPN. Go behind the scenes with major donors as they scramble to justify yet another extension.

Well let's take a quick look around shall we, I will never pass up an opportunity to go digging around basketball reference. I will try to ignore the seasons from smaller schools before they hit the bigtime and focus on their main time at their main school or schools.

John Wooden, 20th season -- 29-1, National Championship
Coach K, 20th season -- 29-5, Sweet 16
Jim Boeheim, 20th season -- 29-9, lost in National Championship game
Dean Smith, 20th season -- 29-8, lost in National Championship game
Jim Calhoun, 20th season -- 30-4, Elite Eight
Roy Williams, 20th season -- 36-3, Final Four

So as you can plainly see, it is actually quite normal for a coach to experience a lull in......wait a second, the 20s are on the WRONG SIDE!

Greg Kampe's 20th season...13–17 and 6–10 in the MCC.

But yeah, the guy has one 20-loss season in his 40 years at Oakland.

for some reason we don't have increased expectations for a 20-year coach or so I've been told

one of the many Mooneyite tenets that simply holds no water.
