    Since the 1st NCAA Tournament the only male coaches to do so were Bobby Knight, former North Carolina head coach Dean Smith and Joe B. Hall of Kentucky, all won as a player and a head coach. Knight at Ohio State in 1960; Smith at Kansas in 1952, and Joe B. Hall won as a player (1949- Kentucky), even though he didn't play in the Championship game and coach (1978- Kentucky).

    Also, before the NCAA Tournament, John Wooden led Purdue to National Championship (1932).

    Also, Mulkey-Robertson became the first woman to win a national championship as both a player and a coach. She won two titles as a player at Louisiana Tech in the early 1980s.
