Prior to starting to write this blog, Steve Alford was the Iowa men's basketball coach. He was here for 8 years. The other day, he was hired as the UCLA basketball coach. At his first press conference, he was asked about Pierre Pierce. Pierce was an Iowa Hawkeye that was ensnared by off-court issues. A lot of fans criticized Alford for the way he handled the situation. Some argue it was a factor in his decision to leave the U of I for New Mexico, which is the school he left.
I never met Alford. I have heard a lot of whispers and gossip about him being an ass.
That said, I hope he is successful at UCLA.
