Even if i was a hoosier, I'd be hard pressed to leave being in L.A. once I already had a deal cut with the Ball family.

Yep. Could be nightmarish.
If it comes to that, let's hope UCLA is playing long enough that we're able to make our move in the interim.
Alford will not leave UCLA for Indiana. But I think Marshall and Archie will both be candidates, and I will be surprised if they do not take the job if offered.
Spoiler alert, the other Ball kids stink.

I mean, even at this moment, Archie and Marshall are frozen by the Indiana situation.
If Alford becomes the fait accompli there, the whole market shuts down until that figures itself out.
Unless of course we want to take home the girl that's been making eyes at us this whole time.
You're in the real thing now, Josh.

Likely, but one can hope against hope that people get antsy.
To further exhibit how 2004 I am, my buddy and I have been calling him Julie Cooper-Nichol, of The OC fame.
And to all you current college students who have never heard of that show, I am still young damnit, leave me alone
Yes!! You are even more of the man now Second... the OC is an underrated show of our time.

They wore robes back then. Didn't need ties.
They don't stink. They may just not be their older brother. I think there is general agreement that they are Division 1 players.
Do you think that UCLA is a bigger draw for Miller than IU? I don't know. I think given the choice between IU and Illinois, he chooses IU. He probably chooses UCLA over Illinois, but I think it's not quite as simple a choice.
Don't get me wrong, UCLA is a better job than Illinois. But, he'd have to move across the country and he'd be in the same conference as his brother. I don't know enough about their relationship to know how they would view that competition, but it could factor in his decision.
Well, we'll disagree, pretty good sources on that. Alford will not leave UCLA for Indiana.
The Indiana search will likely affect our search, I'd imagine we may run into some of the same candidates. But UCLA will not be in the market.
Oh sure, they're D1 players. But not program-changers like Lonzo.
One note on UCLA, their AD is low key an enormous boob.

Bill Walton is not their AD.
