TheWatShot Posted January 20, 2021 Posted January 20, 2021 Still waiting on someone to give me evidence that Alford would be an upgrade...so far, all I've gotten is "he has as many Sweet 16's as we do in the last 25 years." JaybobHoosier and woodenshoemanHoosierfan 2
8bucks Posted January 20, 2021 Posted January 20, 2021 Still waiting on someone to give me evidence that Alford would be an upgrade...so far, all I've gotten is "he has as many Sweet 16's as we do in the last 25 years." Upgrade vs Archie? Archie has at best gotten us in the NCAAs as one of the last teams in. Alford took UCLA to the tournament 4 times in 5.5 years and got to 3 sweet 16s. That is better than Archie. Even at Iowa he took them to the tournament 3 times in 8 years. At Iowa he won the BTT twice as well. He did not have great results but compared to Archie Alford is miles ahead. He also did not take long to have a competitive team at either UCLA or Iowa. I am not an Alford advocate btw but he has had better results than Archie Sent from my iPad using BtownBanners mobile app lillurk and JaybobHoosier 2

Someone wrote -- maybe it was you, I don't recall for sure -- asking unless Alford went to IU, would we have any interest in him based on his coaching achievements? I think the answer would be a pretty obvious no. DChoosier, RatpigHoosier, cchuntsman and 3 others 6

JSHoosier Posted January 20, 2021 Posted January 20, 2021 Speaking as someone that would love to have an IU guy if there was a good option, Alford is a no. The best option from IU guys may be Fife since he's on Izzo's bench and that's TBD IMO; we should know it's possible to be on Izzo's bench and manage to learn absolutely nothing.

I personally love how he built Baylor of all places to a level that he could bring in 5 star talent. He then learned though that those guys did not often come with hunger and is now reaping the success of a Villanova style - get old stay old - approach. https://www.si.com/.amp/college/2020/02/28/scott-drew-baylor-basketball I thought he was a scumbag due to the threats his staff made to Hanner Perea? https://www.insidethehall.com/2010/10/12/baylor-in-hot-water-over-perea-recruitment/ He's appears to morally bankrupt, hiding behind that faux piety. But that truly does not matter, if he can win here, right? But, yes, everyone keep piling on the Sandwich for forgiving Alford his sins.
Hoosier Guy Posted January 20, 2021 Posted January 20, 2021 Wins should never come before a person’s safety. Look at Joe Paterno and Art Briles. I would never condone that. I don’t care how great IU would be in those years. I wouldn’t be able to look at the program the same way HoosierAloha and mamasa 2

Do the rest of the world a favor and please make sure you are never in any position whatsoever to advocate for/mentor/coach/teach/etc. women for the entirety of your existence. This comment alone makes you are wholly unfit to do so. Now translate that statement into something that would get me banned from this board....that’s what I really mean. Don't worry. Already done that. Great group of girls I was to coach. They were awesome. Even though the twins tried killing each other before each game.

Banner is a man so he's fine. Fife has been at RapeU for however long but it's a good candidate.
