He took the last of Bobby Knight's kids and brought them to the Final 4 on what they had learned from coach Knight. He couldn't make the tourny (for what will be a 3rd year in a row) at IU one of if not THE premier basketball programs history wise in the country. He's better suited going to a lower conference and reorganizing himself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Talk about injuries his big man DJ White who is astar has been out all year. The fans at IU are the worst, they want Alfrod from IOwa because he went to IU and thats the only reason. Davis had Dwight Howard going to IU, imagine that guy went to college, IU would be in the final 4 . I agree with you that he is a bad coach, but sometimes recruits can go very far. Im sure his chances of coming to usf are slim but he will coach a power conference team next year. He would definitely work out here though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact many of them are asking to not even interview Alford. (Workmate is an IU alum) Go check the rivals IU board and you won't see much support for the guy, IU fans don't like his short tourny stays. Second, Dwight Howard was going to Duke or UNC if he went to college. IU was on his list but as a Magic fan, I remember them saying during the draft that he was down to the two tobacco road schools.Third, IU is 13-9 and just lost to PENN STATE. They don't have much wiggle room to make the tourny. I don't think they will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How the heck to they expect to outbid those schools when they have no money from football comming in which is where 80% of those other school make their money?

IU doesnt want Alford, in fact yes they do they are just not sure if they are going to be able to get him. He is a hot commodity. Thad Matta? Your an idiot, he just signed with OSU and has Greg Ogden coming in there. Do you think he is going to leave that great situation for IU. Wow your a moron box. I think Rezz and Joe are the same guy. Two fags. Dont talk **** about me, I dont about you. If we disagree say your point and dont call me out , because we can settle this another way. The recruit I meant, that committed and left was Josh Smith. My mistake it was late and I had a usf hangover after another loss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
