Trouble in Alford paradise- Bluiett decomits

[UncleHawk]

Looks like SA is having trouble before the season even begins at UCLA. Trevon Bluiett just decommitted citing distance concerns. MI and IN look to be the favorites for him now.

Top-50 recruit Trevon Bluiett decommits from UCLA - ESPN Los Angeles

A huge blow to Alfords recruiting efforts at UCLA. People think we are bad with our obsession over Alford, UCLA will be over the top on this one and most of it has already begun.

'this is freaking iowa'.......i wonder if steveo will pull that rabbit out of his hat at ucla. big spotlight, big media, big expectations and nowhere to hide.........he is finally the little fish in the big pond - so far, it doesn't look good.

Ha, ha, ha, Car-ma is a biiiooootich.

Didn't know there was an Alford paradise right now. I thought he was on everybody's bad side.

 

[nationalchamps]

I am enjoying this immensely.

 

[blkngldFRO]

Clearly it is the players fault.

 

[SPGroth]

No, it was because UCLA is a football school.

No, it was because UCLA is a football school.

seriously though, how much you want to bet he says something dumb like this after he's fired.

"They promised me a new practice facility and I couldn't recruit without it"
I can hear it now.

What dumb thing will Alford say after being fired

Maybe this thread should be changed to "What dumb thing will Alford say after being fired"

"Not many great coaches get the respect to coach again where they got their start. It is a privilege to be back at North Manchester in a state that truly knows what basketball is all about."

 

[ssckelley]

We need a thread to predict how long he lasts. Or is there one already? I won't because I don't want to be "that guy".

Paging Glidinghawk. Paging Glidinghawk.

Alf will get three years. Three very difficult years.

 

[MeatMan]

i'll start a thread when i get home from work if there isn't one already.

 

[ssckelley]

Alf will get three years. Three very difficult years.

You really think he makes it that long? They are not a patient fan base.

 

[sioux34]

Have you seen the size of the buy out. He will get his three years and the AD will get the ax as well.

 

[MeatMan]

yeah, i'm betting on three years also.
