Answer
1 - Forbes Wake Forest
2 - Brownell Clemson
3 - Young Va Tech
4 - Odom - Va
5 - Capel Pitt
There was no agenda here. Just a list of ACC current coaches. As one poster said, Brownell is clearly 1 or 2 here based on the data I provided, but he has had long stretches with no success and fans wanted him fired at Clemson for years. But now he has made 3 march madnesses in a row. Is that because of increased NIL, has he improved, I dont know. But he is the rare guy in todays game that has been given a long rope
Forbes has not made march madness at all in 6 years at Wake.
Young - Draw your own conclusion
Odom - appears to be hot, but has the smallest sample size. But he has made march madness with 4 schools. He may be the real deal if UVa keeps funding up
Capel had Blake Griffin when he was good. Other than that, he has done nothing. Maybe he is also underfunded
Thanks for playing

Not particularly meaningful without knowing the "conference" for each.**
