Well New Mexico fans, this may be the highlight of his career down there.
And there are no give-backs. He is yours to keep.

1. Funny you should post this tonight

While we were watching NCAA games this evening, I thought about Alford and wondered what NM thinks of him after his first year there. Good riddance.

2. Story from the NM Lobos website

New Mexico Falls to Cal., 68-66
Jamal Boykin made two free throws with 3.7 seconds left, Ryan Anderson scored 26 points and California held off New Mexico 68-66 in the first round of the National Invitation Tournament on Wednesday night. DeVon Hardin added 10 points and six rebounds, Jerome Randle scored 11 and Boykin 10 as the Golden Bears (17-15) advanced to face Ohio State (20-13) on Monday night in Columbus, Ohio. Cal, which won the NIT in 1999, made 22 of 31 free throws and shot 48 percent.

3. Hey, I'll take almost $1 million to coach a basket ball team to a loss

4. I'd do the same as well.

Hell I'm a Steve Alford prodigy: Nice hair and no basketball coaching ability!

6. I liked Larry

at least he was very approachable and that got him into trouble. He had a problem and has dealt with it. I seriously doubt there is a 12 step program for the kind of ego SA has.
