The General finally snapped Dean Smiths mark of 879 games. The perception is that this mark will not stand long. Because Coach K is not far behind at 753, but that's assuming that Bobby retires soon, I would expect Bobby to finish his contract in 2011. Even with Coach K's team winning 24-28 a year, since Tech will win around 20 a year that is only a 4-8 games a year pick up for 5 years of 20 or so games. That means Coach K will have to coach for an additional 6 seasons to pass The General, 6 seasons takes him to 2017 when he turns 70. I don't see it happening. Lets not forget The General was 24 when he assumed the head coaching duties at Army. Coach K was born in 1947, The General was born in 1940, they are closer in age than people remember.
