his inability to relate to the high level D1 athletes. The egos and attitudes he faced at MU were different that what he'd succeeded with at CMSU. Those kids had had their egos broken and were willing to start over.
Kim's lack of relateability hurt him in recruiting (although we're seeing that many of those players are not as bad as they looked under Kim), and it hurt in him motivating the players, and it hurt in him communicating the skills and/or tactics that were needed.
The man is not an idiot. He knows the game of basketball, but knowing it and leading a D1 team are not the same.
Much the same as what happened to Norm in the 90's. He completely lost the ability to relate to the younger kids.

          Whether that is accurate or not, it does not change the fact - alwaysright MU - 2/15 15:17:14

          Mike Alden didn't have any other options. The situation was - Tiger_1995 MU - 2/15 13:48:04
               Any? He had a multitude of options, with most - FIJItiger MU - 2/15 13:54:28
                    Here is a list of potential candidates from the time: - FIJItiger MU - 2/15 13:58:52
                         Most of those people were NOT coming here at that time.(nm) - Tiger_1995 MU - 2/15 14:21:57
                              Why not? They were certainly options for Alden - FIJItiger MU - 2/15 14:23:39
                                   Because most on that list would not have accpted an - WildCard MU - 2/15 14:29:41
                                        So the list is no good in your opinion - FIJItiger MU - 2/15 14:31:08
                         A list of people you wanted to hire - WildCard MU - 2/15 14:15:30
                              I didn't write that article - FIJItiger MU - 2/15 14:17:33
                                   Not you in particular. You in general. (nm) - WildCard MU - 2/15 14:18:54
                                        For example: - FIJItiger MU - 2/15 14:20:21
                                             Howland may have talent the job - WildCard MU - 2/15 14:27:53
                                                  The point is there is a robust amount of options - FIJItiger MU - 2/15 14:29:48
                                                       To pretend there werent - WildCard MU - 2/15 14:31:57
                                                            There were not any issues that limited the candidate pool(nm) - FIJItiger MU - 2/15 14:32:53
                                                                 Simply incorrect - WildCard MU - 2/15 14:37:14
                                                                      How could that have limited that candidate pool? - FIJItiger MU - 2/15 14:40:04
                                                                           Alden knew that to be the case - WildCard MU - 2/15 14:42:41
                                                                                So he pursued Gregg Marshall with that knowledge, but then - FIJItiger MU - 2/15 14:42:01
                                                                                     Again, I never said Anderson was the only option. - WildCard MU - 2/15 14:44:35
