I agree that Alford could very well come here and then bomb or be mediocre. However, I could see him being very successful, too. The former is not a foregone conclusion. I would rather have BD or Marshall, but I would rather have Alford than Bennett, Archie, or Collins. I think Alford could attract some serious talent. Again, I'm not pro Alford, but in the event he does come here, I won't be distraught. I will be hopeful.

I'd take Bennett and Miller long before Alford.  I want Collins about as much as Alford, that is to say not much.

Give me Bennett every day of the week over Alford and it isn't even close. Dude gets his kids to over achieve, play fundamentally sound, and dude knows defense.

Lol people get more butthurt over a joke than an obviously fake rumor. Take a joke.

Just don't see the point in it. People are on edge for news and make a dumb joke like that? Whatever though.

Steve please come home. Alford would be a great hire for IU. Would take the recruiting in state by storm and also now has connections all over the country. Most of all I want Crean gone.

I saw this on an Illinois forum. I do not know if this actually true or wishful thinking. I just found it interesting!

"The big rumor right now is that the same offer (5 years, $25 million total) is out there in front of the people that are representing Marshall and Bennett. Supposedly Marshall's camp has been a little more lukewarm while Bennett's people seem more open to a possible move.

I do know McAdoo. He used to call our HS games on the radio. He wouldn't have posted it unless he heard it multiple times.

IF this is true Indiana needs to make a move. $5m a year is setting the bar pretty high too.

 

Hope to not have to play against either of these guys the next 5 years, especially with CTC's teams.
