    If Steve Alford doesn't win the game against NC, Dakich wouldnt have been remembered for holding Jordan to 13 pts.

    Alford did not even show up for the IU BB banquet after his senior year.

    He's not the IU coach because of the Pierre Pierce incident when he was coaching Iowa ...
    Alford publicly took sides against a rape victim and also kept Pierce on the roster as charges were pending ...
    Knight would have immediately kicked him off the team ... and as IU fan since the 70s, I can do without Alford ...

      You are truly an effing idiot. He was put on the spot after a loss in a press conference with no information and just defended the player as a knee jerk reaction.

    Pierre pierce he’s managed to alienate every fanbase an alumni he’s coached at most notably UCLA

    Alford has had six Division One coaching jobs and hasn't done a lot with any of them.

    Say "Steve Alford wants to meet with you" to a recruit today and they are like WDF is sTaVe wiLLfOrD ???

    I didn’t have to listen to the show to answer this question. He’s an average coach who has been doing it long enough that we know his ceiling. Steve also has an average to poor track record in the tournament. Coach Miller’s win percentage is about the same, but with far fewer years coaching. I don’t think we know what Archie’s ceiling is yet.

      Millers ceiling is the NIT

      Alford is a successful coach. In Indiana he would be far more successful, and it would bring a lot of nostalgia back into the program.

      Well he’s not doing so well! I do hope he does! But would rather have Steve!

    He may be a decent Mid Major coach, but he’s not a coach that will win a national championship anywhere.
    He proved that after getting fired from UCLA and he couldn’t win at Iowa.
    He is best coaching at somewhere like Dayton, Wichita State, or Bowling Green.
    He would never win at somewhere like Indiana University.
    I live in Indianapolis btw.

      Nick Saban was an average coach prior to Alabama, except for 1 season at LSU. Sometimes the person and location have to match.

      At Iowa, Alfords were classic jerks and prima Donna’s. He did ok with Dr Tom Davis players, but couldn’t recruit his own talent. I agree with Anthony - Mid-Major coach at best.

    He will coach Indiana when they sign 3 all-americans and he knows they can win the NCAA.

    I was told Steve was coming to Iu when Coach Knight got fired but Mike Davis and the people that wanted him used the r…card? Idk!

      Steve didn’t want it after Knight was fired

    Great part of IU lore, but has not been impressive as a D1 coach.

    Maybe because he hasn’t had any success at the major college programs where he has coached. He should have stayed at Southwest Missouri State (now Missouri State). He has left every other program worse than he found it.

      Iowa would have won 3 nattys if it not for Pierre Pierce
