When I google it this thread already comes up third...so safe to say it would be out of nowhere.

Bwah ha ha ha!!!

Bit of a shock to me, but it is a pretty good hire for UCLA if they want regular season success. The postseason is a different story.

 

[TykeClone]

Just think of the flameouts that he could have with UCLA!

 

[TheAntiHawk]

Im seeing word from sources on Twitter. Guess they are looking for regular season success only.

In a few years, they will be reminiscing about the glory days with Howland.

WOW, I was 99.9% sure someone just jumped the gun on April Fools.

Now he can cover up rapes in a major market.

Seems remarkably like what Iowa did to Tom Davis - fired a successful coach who "underachieved" in the tournament.

Over/Under on when UCLA will be the first one seed to lose to a 16 seed in the first round?

Surprising hire by UCLA. I bet they won't be happy with his success a few years from now.

 

[CarlHungus]

Gottlieb thinks its a good hire.

Maybe when he first started there but his last few years at UCLA were terrible. I don't blame them for firing him.

 

[tm3308]

This is gonna be good. I'm watching with popcorn on hand.

Seriously, the guy hasn't made it past the round of 32 in over a decade, and UCLA thinks he fits with their philosophy?

 

[jaretac]

Odd hire for them....but I kinda hope he goes on to win a title there just to tick Iowa fans off.

Alford couldn't handle the lowly expectations in Iowa City, how's he going to handle those at UCLA?
