Sports Animal Trivia Question

The Sports Fix at 6.

Rick Barnes is the 6th NCAA coach to lead two separate programs to the #1 spot in the AP poll. Name the other 5 (Jimmy gave one and asked for the other 4).

Hint: only one didn't take a current member of the SEC to #1 (although not necessarily when they were in the SEC).

Don't ruin it for everybody else playing. Just name one at a time. Wait for a few minutes between answers.

[The Dog]

Good stuff, TGO

 

[Thunder Good-Oil]

I wonder how far back the AP poll goes. 5 of 6 are fairly recent and are still alive. Maybe way back when coaches would just never leave after finding success.

Nothing is quite as entertaining as hearing 30 minutes of callers repeat the same incorrect answers.
