Jack Murphy has it, and success has followed him at every stop. During his time at Arizona, the Wildcats made the NCAA Tournament every season, including a trip to the 2001 NCAA championship game. When he moved to the NBA ranks in 2006, Murphy was a part of the Denver organization that played in three-straight NBA Playoffs. Murphy's final year in Denver – with NBA stars Carmelo Anthony, Chauncey Billups and Allen Iverson – saw the Nuggets win a franchise record 54 games and advance to the Western Conference Finals. And success followed Murphy to the Bluff City. In his three seasons, Murphy's helped the Tigers advance to the postseason three times, including two NCAA Tournament appearances. He's also been a part of the winningest staff in its first three years in Tigers history with 72 victories.
