While I hope not, I don't know if we'd ever know that for sure.  When the guy is announced, you know it will be characterized as "we got our guy, he's the one we wanted from the very start" sort of thing.

I think you're giving him too much credit at zero. Lol

If that's the case we should've kept Crean.

Frank Vogel will save us.

Honestly, I'd be okay with this. 

 

Frank > Marshall + Alford

Chris Holtman is better than Alford .... i think we could get him! 

Chris Mack is better than Alford ..... I think we could get him!

Hiring a new coach is feeling identical to firing Crean. It just keeps going back and forth. Is it Alford or Donovan. Is Crean going or staying. I just want this to be over with already

BTB version of March Maddness: keeping up with this thread and our ongoing coaching search.

So many rumors, so little time. Work is interrupting my BTB time.

Everyone needs to take a deep breath. I warned there would be Alford noise coming from clueless national media and casual fans. Let it pass.

[Aaron 4,293]

2 things:

1. First of all this doom and gloom about Alford sounds a lot like the doom and gloom on this board when everyone thought we were keeping Crean the day before he was fired.

2. As I keep saying the longer Alford stays in the tourney the better. If he can put a Final Four Appearance (or even National Championship) on his resume either UCLA is going to fight hard to keep him and not let us have him or all our fans will feel better about hiring him with this years success on his resume (I know I will). Also if he's in the tourney for 2 more weeks maybe we start looking around at other names who are available and hire them first. No matter what the longer Alford goes its a win-win.

BREAKING NEWS: Billy Donovan spotted drinking a Diet Coke.

[Trish 11,570]

Wonder what Crean is doing these days..

[Mlibrett 4]

Unfortunately not quite what he said. He is hearing the rumors from boosters. Also hearing folks in the NBA are less than convinced BD is going anywhere.

 'I'm not going to be the Alabama coach' Nick Saban Dec 21 2006.

Less than 2 weeks later he was. 

 

Believe everybody.

Guy at work yesterday said Dakich said we got Alford. I'M guessing he read something. I know Dakich said we got our guy already but I didn't think he said Alford's name other than how we should go get him.

Doyle's article about the Alford noise yesterday included a quote from Dakich that Dakich directly texted him. "the deal (with) Alford is done". 

Has me kind of worried because I usually like to write both of them off, but 247 guys are saying to stay the course, so I'll continue to believe for now.
