Ridiculous. Why not IU?

Complete and obvious speculation: Alford's negative recruiting.

[Alford Bailey 13,228]

WOW. Still be shocked if he comes east but you would think we at least get a visit.

You think Alford is negative towards Crean or the program in general?

[GloryDays 6,224]

 He wants the player and is very connected to Indiana.

I highly doubt he's talking Crean up.Recruiting's a ruthless business.

.

I'm having one hell of a time finding the article I read that made mention of it. It was an Arizona site speaking on the decommit, possible reasons behind it, other teams getting involved, and it mentioned something along the lines of "Alford taking a page from Thad Matta in the way he spoke of Indiana coach Tom Crean.

[HoosierTrav 8,338]

Could be total bs but I believe it. The past players can't stand Crean. That's no secret.

I hope Crean thinks even worse of Alford. In my opinion, he's a scumbag. Thanks for the memories while a player at Indiana, but your true colors have come out in the 20+ years afterwards.

Yeah, a lot of people around here get blinded by Alford's playing days and don't realize how much of a scumbag he truly is. We would much rather get on Calipari for dropping bags of cash than Alford for antagonizing rape victims.

With you. Cheating is always better than Alford's crimes...

agreed

Ok TJ. Go to ucla, play for a scum bag. Go to UK, play for a cheating scum bag. Go to Oregon, win nothing and be nothing. Go to Louisville, play for a member of a mob¿¿ (best I could do)

Come to Indiana, play for a nice, not weird, non scum guy.

Your choice though.

Not weird is a stretch.

How about....play for a guy that's an adulterer and can't last more than 15 seconds?? Which really makes one question his decision making.  I mean...have an affair and all the **** that comes with it....for 15 seconds????? If it's Jessica Alba, 2 seconds is worth it...but 15 seconds for Karen Sypher...blah  http://deadspin.com/5599052/rick-pitino-lasted-15-seconds-and-other-things-of-note  

 

EDIT: I forgot how crazy that whole story was:  http://www.masslive.com/sports/index.ssf/2010/07/rick_pitino_karen_sypher_whisp.html Supposedly Pitino gave her 3k and Sypher used it for an abortion.  And the whole cheating thing went down in an ITALIAN RESTAURANT.
