What if Tom Izzo had never been born?

Could you add three Final Four trips to the state of Kentucky's ledger? Would you add the 1999 and 2005 trips that Tubby Smith and UK lost to Michigan State in regional finals and the 2009 trip that Rick Pitino and Louisville lost to Izzo in the final eight?

With a Final Four trip "with his own players" in 2005, would Tubby still be the UK coach — and how much would that have saved the University of Kentucky in terms of subsequent turmoil, controversy and money?
I like tom izzo he is one of the better coaches in college basketball...and if he werent there at mich.st. then theVILLE would been in the final four this past season...Im not sure I understand the question...what if Adolph Rupp were not born would Uk be were there are today....
To many what ifs in this thread lol
