Keith Smart is the easy answer. I'm going to say Randy Wittman and Mike Woodson because they both played for Bobby Knight and they won all those titles in the 70s/80s.

Wittman is one of the other two (Indiana 1981)

Woodson's career at Indiana was sandwiched in between two championships (1976 and 1981)

Dwayne Casey.

Indeed

Kentucky 1978
Yup

Off the top of my head, I'm guessing Spoelstra and Van Gundy.

Greenbean: I'll say Van Gundy, Spoelstra, Frank, Vogel and Thibodeau.

Jason Terry, Richard Hamilton, Richard Jefferson...wow..that was really hard, and I'm not sure I got a single one. Jordan Farmar? Aha! Brandan Wright! Right?

I removed this, since I cheated and looked it up and didn't want to ruin the question for others.

You got the first two.  Jefferson wasn't on the title team at Arizona.  I had to cheat to get the third guy.  No way I would have gotten it.  I don't want to ruin it since I cheated.

The list will likely get bigger this year as the Bulls and Heat both have two NCAA champions each and the Thunder and Lakers each have one.

Aside from Garnett, who is the only other player with at least 19000 points, 6000 rebounds, 3400 assists, 1400 steals, and 1300 blocks

Sounds like a wing - the 6,000 rebounds, 3,400 assists and 1,400 blocks.

Poor question on my part. Terry and Hamilton but there are two more.

No way Kobe Bryant has 1300 blocks. He'd need to be averaging more than 1 block per game for his career. He probably doesn't have half of that. I also doubt he has 6,000 rebounds.

I say it's Kareem. If not, Karl Malone.

The other NCAA+NBA champion is Corey Brewer. No idea about the 4th guy.
