@Dave_Matter: Late in the game Missouri also had Gregg Marshall & Mike White on the radar. Ben Howland was eliminated by that point.
@Dave_Matter: Howland was in larger pool of candidates Missouri looked at (around 10) but didn't make cut much beyond then.
@Dave_Matter: Howland baggage from UCLA demise knocked him out of the final pool.
So there ya go...a hire based on image. Alden wanted the squeaky clean over winning...
