After today, can it get any crazier?!? Even God rested on Sunday Chris. I'm afraid you're gonna have to come in on Sunday and keep everyone updated...um Kay?!

That listing is not Hoiberg's house. It is in a different neighborhood and has been on the market for 130 days.

Even though it isn't his house, I wouldn't use that as a reason to help prove your point.
From the sounds of things Fred could have put his house on the market last year sometime... :twitcy:

The backlash from the Hornacek Suns contract extension announcement could be worse than the official HoiBullz announcement at this point.

i realize that everyone is a little tired and ****** off but its not necessary to ignore common sense.

CFH is currently the focus of the coaching world. there is plenty of interest in knowing why one of the most prestigious franchises in sports gives a crap about a coach from ames iowa.

One of the most prestigious franchises in sports? The Chicago Bulls from the NBA?

The league with the 3rd highest revenue in America and the one that hasn't won jack since Jordan was booted?

A hint of hyperbole here?

The Horny dream has at least provided a sliver of hope and relieved a little of the gloom from the torture that is Hoiberg Watch. We obviously were months behind on watching.

If he signs an extension that likely means ISU has at least made an offer. Which means ISU at least made an attempt at getting him here. I would be ok with that.
However, if ISU makes no effort in getting him, then the meltdown could be huge.

Yeah, I knew that wouldn't help the cause but if his house would've been listed 130 days ago someone important like CW or Travis would've been all over that. BTW, did you know Gilbert gets out on Monday? Hadn't heard that yet. :twitcy:

I don't see that, like people have said, it shows we made an attempt.....he doesn't owe us to take the job if offered to him, we know his family loves Phoenix.....but he just might give us a serious look if the Suns don't want to extend him, so what does it really hurt?

What am I missing? 3000 feet in Ames for over a million? Was there an active goldmine in the backyard?
They only list main floor finished. Total is 5,640 finished with custom Hickory cabinets, sunken theater/family room, 3+ car attached vaulted garage with full basement/workshop in the garage. On an acre and a half, backing up to 18 acres near Squaw Creek. IIRC it is a local builder's home.

I'm very curious to know how it all played out. Unfortunately, I highly doubt we as fans will ever know ALL the facts of how this all went down.

Just my opinion, I think it's been all but decided for awhile. The Hoiberg 'camp' has said there isn't any sort of gentleman's deal in place. Really? What do you expect them to say? Of course they're going to deny any of that.

I don't think TJ all the sudden coming back is a coincidence. I think he'll be our coach next season & I'm fine with that. I don't think a college coach wouldn't not promise a high profile recruit he'd be here just because of a 'chance' he'll be gone next year. I think at that point it was a HIGH probability.

I think Fred was limited in what he could say because of how long the Bulls took to fire Thibs. I don't think this is how he'd prefer it all to go down, & I hate how it's unfolding. I wish it would just all be done already.

Looking forward to next season, & hope we finish next season much better than how this one ended up.
