The Bruins won 7 straight national championships under Coach Wooden. That is a record that will probably never be broken.
When he retired in 1976, he was only making $35,000 a year and he never asked for a raise. He was offered 10x more money to go to the NBA but he wouldn't do it. Unlike the coaches today, he truly cared nothing about money.
