He got turned down for what.

Multiple coaches told him no.

Anderson was the lifeline. He went with a safety hire because he couldn't say "no one will work for me" as that is clearly becoming a meme about Alden.

He is toxic to our basketball program and probably will have to be fired. He may not even deserve the reputation. But he has it.

Can you name another program with top 30 facilities and top 30 salary who cannot find a coach who will say yes? I cannot.

My new working theory: A deal has actually been struck with Marshall to begin coaching the team in 2015-2016, after his son has graduated high school. Anderson is to coach the team in 2014-2015 season as that bridge and then will remain on staff as an assistant to Marshall. Also explains why it took so long, why all the secrecy, and besides that, I read it in my syrup.

You don't know that.

Marsall had more reasons to stay at WSU than leave, he would have been kind of crazy to leave this year.

Howland may have been rejected by people at Mizzou, there is a reason he's out of work.

The Nova guy is at home, his wife was a cheerleader there, it's a good basketball school. Can't blame Mizzou for him not wanting the job.

That Underwood guy was begging for the job, I don't think Alden is why the coaches that turned the job down turned it down.

That said, I've been anti Alden for years. I've wanted him gone long ago.
