the job he did there is more than adequate for him to not be fired from UCLA. From Wikipedia: "Howland became the first men's coach in college basketball history to be fired immediately after winning an outright power-conference title... He is one of only three active coaches to compete in three consecutive Final Fours. The other two are Tom Izzo and Mike Krzyzewski."
I cannot believe someone like Ben Howland would not have taken this job. I know he got fired from UCLA but the job he did there would be more than adequate for a program like Minnesota.
Im guessing Ben Howland didnt want the job.
Everything is all about Alf when you get right down to it. Just ask him.How does a thread about the Goofs new coach turn into an Alford thread?
He must not have been alone on that list.

How do we know if they even inquired?
I just don't get why Minnesota looks so unattractive to everybody, are the facilities that bad? Minnesota is the only major college in the state of Minnesota located in the Twin Cities. Schools like UNI have built a decent program just by picking off the 2nd tier of recruits out of Minnesota.

The man's ego is so massive, it has it's own gravitational pull. Eventually all threads get sucked in and feed off his ego.

So now the B1G has 2 coaches that are sons of popular coaches, Pitino and Collins. Is there a Phil Jackson Jr out there or a Patrick Riley someone could hire?
Are you talking about Alford or sioux?
Originally Alford, but maybe Alford and Souix have a binary-star type of relationship and feed off each other. I don't know Souix well enough to make that call.
You are correct on that. There was at least a handful of guys that shunned the Gophs according to media reports.
Hoiberg
Stevens
Smart
Saunders
Cincy Coach
I actually wouldnt be surprised if Jacobson was approaced by Minny and that was why his contract was extended as well.
Most of those guys were long shots to begin with. Teague really blew it on Saunders. That would have been a good hire, and he's a local so it would have been largely applauded by alums, donors and local media. If he didn't win... nobody would have blamed Teague.
