I'm to the point I will go with anyone We need some new age boosters who aren’t as enamored with the past, but on the flip side of that, those people haven’t seen IU have extended success. They’re probably less likely to pony up. For example, my parents are in their late 40s and were teenagers the last time we won a title, and basically my age the last time we made a final four. I honestly wouldn’t be surprised either if the old boosters decided Alford was the golden son who could fix things. Quote

I honestly wouldn’t be surprised either if the old boosters decided Alford was the golden son who could fix things. I'm almost your parent's age, was in 5th grade when Smart hit the shot. Totally agree we need new boosters. I'm also starting to think we will never get back to the way it was when I was growing up. I think we had a once-in-a-lifetime coach and it's not going to be the same. I do think we can be much better than we have been and can be elite again.

TheWatShot Posted March 3, 2022 Posted March 3, 2022 We've had multiple chances to hire Alford and went with other guys. If our administration coveted him that much, he'd already be here. Chris007, akumanina, Josh and 3 others 6 Quote
