We know Crean and Buzz did not play college basketball. Scott Drew at Baylor didn't either Who else that is prominent did not play college ball?
Roy Williams. He was on the JV team at UNC but that's it, he wasn't on the real team.
I would count JV teams and even freshman teams, especially when freshmen weren't allowed to play varsity. It may not be varsity, but you're still competing at a decent level and getting coached too.
Does Majerus count?
Bruce Weber played college baseball, but not hoops.
I don't believe Bruce Pearl played college ball.
Billy Gillispie played only at the JUCO level.
Okay then, I don't believe Bruce Weber played when he was at UWM. He was already coaching at that point as an assistant coach at Marquette High.
Bruce Pearl never played either. He was a student assistant and part-time mascot at Boston College.
If you don't count JUCO ball then Billy Gillespie didn't play. He was a basketball/baseball player at his JUCO but never played beyond that.
