When will it be available in hard back? It would make a nice coffee table book.

Notice, Albers said the interest is coming from Alford. I've yet to see anyone reputable saying the interest is mutual. Until then, I'm not worrying about it.

Janitor mentioned "further West" ... Not a direct mention of #12 but could be...

If you're Steve Alford... how the eff do you let that kind of thing leak in any shape or form when you are the coach of a top team headed into the tournament. What an idiot.

Forgot about that but count me in the camp of not being convinced that the Janitor is in as deep as he once was. Could be. We'll see.

Alford would be an extremely average hire

His teams always seem very Izzoish. They come to play at this time of the year and that is something we are not accustomed to the past couple decades!

I have to politfully disagree. I think that Mike Brey is very forgettable for a reason.

I'd take Alford, but he wouldn't be my 1st call. He's better than Crean.

It is Albers afterall.

He's got mad sneaky sources.

I think it'd be a lateral move at best.  I wouldn't call him at all.

I forgot he mentioned him by name... Interesting...

An Alford hire is strictly a PR hire. I want a basketball hire.

I'm just throwing this out there, but why doesn't Mike Brey ever get tossed around as far as a possible candidate? He's obviously laid the groundwork as far as Indiana recruiting and always has a competitive team in a powerhouse conference. For as well as he does at a "football school", I wonder how well he'd do at a "basketball school". I feel like he is extremely underrated

If I may, I have one word to describe Mike Brey, meh. He's done just fine at Notre Dame, however, he's not a coach to take a team to the promised land. He's always just seemed to me to be very, meh. 

Brey has done amazing things at a traditional football school. While Tom Crean is busy missing the tournament Brey is consistently relevant and about to have his team in another ACC tournament championship game. Imagine what he could do with the name recognition of "Indiana University" behind him.

So, Alford isn't good enough for IU but he's good enough for UCLA. To which he's had 1 phenomenal year and 2 solid/ years.

I still don't get it.

Albers is trolling for traffic.  He does this regularly.  I saw a number of journalists call him out last year.  Well, looks like he's up to it again.  

Sorry, even if Steve Alford had interest in a job that isn't even open yet, he wouldn't dare open his mouth even slightly, let alone talk about recruiting strategies.  

I smell a rat.
