Arizona head coach Tommy Lloyd is ranked sixth among the top 10 coaches in the Big XII rankings posted by On3 on Monday. Kelvin Sampson of Houston is first, followed by Bill Self of Kansas, Scott Drew of Baylor, T.J. Otzelberger of Iowa State and Grant McCasland of Texas Tech.
The top three in the Big XII rankings are obvious, but the order can be questioned. Sampson has a 798–355 career record, three Final Four appearances (which all occurred in the past five years), four Big XII Tournament titles and three regular season championships.
Self is 836–256 in his career, with two national championships, four Final Four appearances, 16 Big XII regular season titles and eight tournament titles.
