One of the things that fans of the UCLA Bruins hated about Steve Alford was his seeming unwillingness to learn about the traditions of UCLA basketball and the program’s history.
But, despite that, you would think that after coaching in Westwood for more than five seasons, Alford would have developed a better sense of UCLA’s history during his time on campus.
Well, it appears that Alford couldn’t even be bothered to flip through one of the media guides that were put out for the program that he was supposed to be leading.
In an appearance earlier this week on Fox Sports 1’s Speak for Yourself, Alford was asked what the most important element UCLA should be looking for in its next head coach.
