    If Indiana doesn't hire him do you think he won't come because "his brother is in the same conference"?

    Lol

    Not seeing Archie and UW as a thing. In football and basketball just about every hire either has pre-existing ties to the school, AD, region. Coaches tend to want to be somewhere they know their boss, school, recruiting area, etc. well. The main exception is going to a blue blood program (e.g. Archie's brother) because a) they'll throw crazy cash at you and b) most of them can draw players from anywhere.

    Archie is more likely to try and land a blue blood job like Indiana, or wait and take one somewhere he knows well like Ohio State if Matta is ever shown the door.

    I don't see him taking a job in the Pac with his brother out here unless UCLA just wanted to throw crazy money at him.
    Is having to coach against your sibling that big of a deal breaker? The Harbaughs and the Ryans seemed to work through it. (I grant you that's at the professional level, not the collegiate.)

    Fuck who wouldn't want to beat the shit outta your brother? It's fun competing against them...

    Regardless of who we* hire, the 'wah he won't compete against his big bro' argument is pretty damn stupid.

    It's not. The real reason he wouldn't coach here is because he is going to get or knows he can get a better opportunity elsewhere.
