why do I associate him with the U. of Arzona? Did he go there after he was at Iowa? I don't recall him being at Iowa but, then, they say the memory is the first thing to go.

Yes, 1980 with UCLA, Purdue and Louisville. Good coaches in that Final Four: Lute, Denny Crum, Larry Brown and Lee Rose, who was succeeded by Gene Keady for the next million years.
