Why Alford?

Steve Alford coaching at UCLA might be the worst hire in the history of modern day college basketball. The Bruin program just fired a coach that won a conference title and made an appearence in the NCAA tournament this year. The bruins pride themselves in not settling for less than national championships so WHY would they hire Steve Alford??  Resume stops include SW Missouri state Iowa and new mexico decent programs but not schools that realistically have a shot at a national title. STRIKE 1. Since Alford is leaving behind an excellent coach in craig neil who is responsible for most of his recruiting success his chances of  dominating recriting in southern California are not as good as the Bruin AD might think. STRIKE 2. Alfords post season track record is nothing short of a disaster STRIKE 3. Being a fan of the University of  Iowa i saw first hand Alford and his dispicable actions covering up a sexual asssault. He was horrible to media and business people here in Iowa City and he left the program in far worse shape than it was when he arrived.  His actions crushed a program that many Iowans hold near and dear to their hearts and for that i hope UCLA and its haughty ridiculous program and fan base kick his ass to the curb.
