I'm sure they have in the past-Until I see that program under Cronin facing allegations of it, I'll give him the benefit of the doubt-Playing for a guy like Cronin isn't for every 5*.

Fair enough.
fwiw, it was pretty recent that there was a lot of concern over changing shoe sponsors due to the AAUs they had first dibs from. UCLA's struggles in recent years are closely linked to switching from Adidas to UA. They hired Cronin from a UA school, which is common with coaching hires to stay in your shoe contract family. Of note, UCLA just switched to Nike & their recruiting is turning elite again.

I think hiring Steve Alford might be part of it as well-he's an idiot.
Might have been Roy's choice. They like to keep things in the family there.
That was my reaction too, seems like an underwhelming hire. No head coaching experience. As @AeroBuff99 said, this was Roy's choice
That didn't work out too well with Matt Doherty

Seems a little underwhelming-but all the names I heard (Jerry Stackhouse and Wes Miller the two that came up most) for that job kind of were.

Small Guards don't get drafted early
It did work for Bill Guthridge... for three years which then led to Doherty.
He is a world class prick too, not surprised if didn't work for him. Davis, idk what he'll do?
History repeats itself. By all accounts, Hubert is an excellent coach and class act. But odds are that it won't work out. I mean, isn't it kind of his fault that recruiting had slipped?

Guard Ian Martinez has entered the transfer portal, according to Verbal Commits. The 6-foot-3, 183-pounder was a four-star recruit when he joined the Utes program.

Actually surprised. It took them long enough.

Tommy Lloyd is that guy's name-He's young (46 iirc), from the PNW (grew up a couple hours south of Seattle), and is really well connected in Europe. He seems like he's well-connected enough and content enough at Gonzaga to where he doesn't need to jump at a situation like Arizona unless he's 100% comfortable with it from what I know about him. This is a total guess-but I think he's gonna pass on UA and probably land at Washington (Mike Hopkins has easily the hottest seat in the conference right now barring the NCAA coming down on USC) in the not too distant future.

Gonzaga assistant Tommy Lloyd has reportedly gotten the job.
That's why I said reportedly.

They're interviewing Miles Simon today. I'd be shocked if their hire isn't in their family. Knowing how to cheat is a prerequisite to coach at a #APayersProgram.
Weird.

Can't wait for them to get caught paying international players. I'm sure Lloyd has expert knowledge of exchange rates!

It looks like Antigua will leave Illinois to become a $2 million assistant at Kentucky.
Cal's recruiting hadn't been the same without him.

Interesting he pretty much just recruited Illinois whole roster with Puerto Rican players. Wonder if they stick. Andre curbelo, Ramses Melendez, Alfonso Plummer
