OT: UCLA Fans Still Unhappy w/ Alford Even Before Season Starts

The situation is getting more and more interesting. Bryce Alford is committed to UCLA (on schollie) and other top PG prospects are steering clear of UCLA because of the fact that they don't want to compete with the coaches son. UCLA fans are drawing parrallels to the Tubby Smith/ Saul Smith debacle at Kentucky. It appears Alfraud is putting his tenure at UCLA on the shoulders of his son.
As if the job wasn't tough enough already.

Worked pretty well with Lickliter

The downside of all this is..when he gets canned, he'll probably end up as a college bball analyst on ESPN and we'll have to listen to his arrogant schtick all the more.

Yep, no pressure at all there, kid. I wouldn't want to be Bryce Alford. Not for a minute.
 
I don't know. If the UCLA fans are telling the truth about the comments Bryce posts on Twitter, he might be easy to root against. The apple hasn't fallen far from the arrogant tree, apparently.

I get the disappointment in the hire, but holy cow, that fan base, the media, everyone is all over him from the get go. Pretty rough deal.

And 10 yrs guaranteed to boot. i can take a lot of anger for that kind of scratch. Do you guys remember the scene in Forget Paris, where Billy Crystal is the ref for the Lakes/Pistons game and the fans are going crazy on him? He then proceeds to have a breakdown and throws Kareem Abdul Jabar out of the game. It was Kareem's farewell tour. Billy said " then let me be the first to say.."farewell"
I could take that kind of hatred for 2.6 mil/10 yrs. no prob.
 
Alfraud's top commit- 4* Bluett just decommited. This is one train wreck that I have been waiting to see for a long time.
