the alumnus hire
Typically occurs for one or both of the following reasons:
1. Arrogance of blue blood football and basketball schools who think their prestige is so high that winning is automatic and cultural fits with the old money boosters/power alumni is most important.
2. No premier coach could be hired so if a mid-tier is the only option, it might as well be a popular alum who the fans might warm up to and not get the AD and president fired after the gut punch of multiple rejections.
