Steve Alford (born November 23, 1964) is an American basketball coach, former player, and current head coach of the UCLA Bruins men’s basketball team. Alford helped lead Indiana University to a national championship in the 1987 NCAA tournament, when Keith Smart hit the winning jump shot against Syracuse. At Indiana, he earned first team All-Big Ten honors three times and became Indiana’s all-time leading scorer at the time. Alford played four years in the NBA for the Dallas Mavericks and Golden State Warriors.  (More from Wikipedia)
Tommy Afterbirth has some notable milestones in his life besides the Gynecologists. He was quite the athlete in his younger days; he competed in a statewide basketball free-throw shooting contest, finishing in second place. The winner of that contest, Steve Alford is a true basketball legend who led the Indiana University Hoosiers to the 1987 national championship and was the school’s all-time leading scorer at the time. Alford currently serves as the coach of the UCLA Bruins, the position previously held by one of the greatest basketball coaches of all time, John Wooden.
