My memory was that was a slightly different scenario.

I thought the Board liked the Anderson hire and after it was kinda wrapped up, were trying to decide if they'd had enough of Alden now and were going to fire him for what preceded it, not necessarily the coaching search itself.

It was the Haith hire where he came in and they hated that idea so much that there were rumors of simply firing him and letting someone else have a go at it.
