Not that he's a terrible coach, but Iowa fans don't seem to appreciate him (my theory is that people see what Ferentz has done with the football team and expect the same from Alford), so maybe he's better off in Indiana for himself and for Iowa fans.
I don't think he'll be offered that job, however, unless he has a stellar year at Iowa--in which case Iowa might not let him go. Kind of a catch-22.

To clear things up, I don't think Alford is a bad coach...especially compared to Davis. However, I also don't think he is a guy that is going to vault a program back to greatness or whatever. Alford is decent, but there are at least 30-40 division I coaches that I would rather have.
