Let's face it, this thread is nothing more than speculation. When Fred addresses the issue then we will officially know what is going on. You have him out the door and a new coach hired already.

lol @ zero ncaa experience. He's an NBA coach ffs. Honestly, I think Horn would do better as an ncaa coach. He's a good teacher, and no one in the nba wants to listen to their coach and they are already set in their ways. In college he can teach the game to players that are willing to listen.

"He also said health is Hoiberg's main concern right now.
"I think nobody knows what's going on right now, I definitely don't," Ejim said in a phone interview. "The biggest thing for him is to [be] healthy, and that's what he's focusing on there.""

""I think that it's only a matter of time," Ejim said. "When you are coaching or playing at any game you play, your goal is to get to the highest level. For him, the NBA could be his highest level. At the same time, he has a great opportunity to stay at Iowa State for a lifetime, I think. So we will see, but I think he is in a great spot with two incredible opportunities.""

""He's probably going through a lot of things right now," Ejim said. "I know there's been a lot of speculation. 'Why hasn't he come out, why hasn't he said anything?' I think the thing that people don't realize is that he is still recovering.""

I concur, he taught me how to shoot at Johnny Orr basketball camp and I remember his example and reasons why each mechanic was so important to this day 25 years later. While I never had the coordination talent or drive to fully implement I learned more from his 30 minute segment than I ever did from any coach I can remember or the entirety rest of the camp.

We may have been at the same camp. The thing I remember most from that camp is Horn draining like 10 straight half court shots (At Lied)

Any chance Fred has legitimately not done any work since his surgery, including discussions with his agent? Maybe his agent has everything queued up and ready to go for the day he comes back and there's truly no decision yet.

Fred is smart and disciplined enough to listen to the doctors and stay away from work while he recovers.
