Has it been nine years already? Man, I'm gettin' old!

Cue Alford to Indiana rumors in about 30 seconds.

Well when the AD wouldn't even give him a home game in the NIT it was pretty clear his time was over.

Crean>Alford, IU would be silly to go that route imo.

 

[Doctor Hoop]

Alford's been a heck of a recruiter at UCLA. Both (allegedly) blue bloods. Then again, Bloomington, IN isn't Westwood, CA.

Why would you ever leave UCLA for Indiana? That seems like a lateral move to me. Can we bring on Crean as an ace recruiter?

Alma mater? Doesn't want to deal with the Ball family for the next 4-5 years? Who knows. I just kind of hope the carousel lands Mick somewhere. Not holding my breath though.

Ah, I forgot he went to IU.

 

[ivrytontusker]

They've gone after Bennett before when he was at WSU, I believe. I think he's pretty set at UVA as it is. They'll probably go after Greg Marshall.

Tom Crean?.....that's the guy that looks like Tom Arnold, right?

Crean got 9 years of mediocrity before he was canned. Alford could get fired after a bad month at UCLA.

The very same.

Tom Crean if he wants one will have a good head coaching job in shot order.

Why do I think of superman when I think of Crean? The clark kent version any way.

Any way, I don't have anything bad to say about him. He did a great job at Marquette, felt like he built them up, took them to a FF. I think he will land on his feet. Why wouldn't he try Washington?

Disagree. We played Marquette in those C-USA days, they were solid but nothing special until Dwyane Wade got there. He carried Crean to IU.

 

[Jaker]

I bet Byrant transfers to Cuse, if he does not go to the NBA.

No chance he goes to Cuse.

 

[Jaker]

No chance he goes to Cuse.

He told Katz just a couple of days ago that if he was not playing for Crean, he would love to play for Bohiem. We will see what happens.

 

[Scoe]

Why not hire Bob Knight.

 

[Matrim55]

Chris Collins. Descendant of the Knight coaching tree without the direct connection, has had obvious outlying success in a P5 setting, and recruits Chicago well.
