FKIM01 Posted January 22, 2018 Report Share Posted January 22, 2018 Enjoy Hollywood because Alford can't develop a zit on his chin. Still funny to see coach Cal screw this one up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FKIM01 Posted January 22, 2018 Report Share Posted January 22, 2018 Location, location, location. It sure isn't because he's shown any evidence that he can coach or develop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love Bloomington with all of my heart. Campus, the people and of course IU. My cousin went to UCLA. Visited there a few times. It's a very easy sell to impressionable 18 year olds. And that's just the campus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was surprised that he didn't carry over the recruitment when he made the move to IU. Moses Brown has said he'll be in college 1 year. That's it. I don't want a kid with that mentality... And I don't think Archie did either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a big fan of coach K but it's comical seeing Cal steamed about the balance of power shifting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Proud2BAHoosier Posted February 28, 2018 Report Share Posted February 28, 2018 Does this give Steve, you know the coach no IU fan wants, the #1 class now?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3Ballin Posted February 28, 2018 Report Share Posted February 28, 2018 It might, but as it has been mentioned before; being in LA, they could probably have one of those wind up clapping monkeys as their coach and have a top 15 class every year. Now Alford has forgotten more about basketball than I could ever dream to know, so this isn't an all out bashing. But, I think for us, he is no more than low hanging fruit. A last grasp to hold on to the end of the golden age of IU basketball. I am THRILLED with what I've seen with CAM so far and am giddy as a school girl for the future.

Doesn't matter. He has been a D1 coach for almost 23 years and has never been past the Sweet 16. Even Crean and Mike Davis aren't that bad.

CauseThatsMyDJ Posted February 28, 2018 Report Share Posted February 28, 2018 247 has UCLA as the #3 class now. Maybe Steve can keep them off the tournament bubble next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seeking6 Posted February 28, 2018 Report Share Posted February 28, 2018 I try not to discount his recruiting success. It's tough to navigate the SoCal AAU world. Howland didn't make nice with 2 guys and it cost him his job. With that said anyone who has been to UCLA and it's campus...not a hard sell there. Eventually though Alford will have to get his teams a deep run. Much like Crean and some IU fans were in 2015...certain part of UCLA fan base is already fed up and the one's who are on the fence are starting to switch to the fire him camp. Deep run is only saving grace. After that. Fire him now and don't waste another 1-2 years.. And that way he can end up at Louisville after this season.
