Hoiberg fired from the Bulls

[cycfan1]

Hopefully the Bulls clean house with GarPax as well.

Coach K, Popovich, Phil Jackson or John Wooden couldn't have won with that abomination of a roster.

Seriously... hire one of the most innovative offensive minds around and surround him with proven non-shooters... recipe for success.

 

[KKramer]

Seems to be the "pro" consensus that he heads back to the college ranks, but I'll be surprised if he does, since I can't imagine he'll like recruiting any better now. I think the logical landing spot is an NBA front office.

This.

 

[mj4cy]

Wish he had been given more players and stability from the front office. Best of luck to him. If he goes to another college, so be it. I really like Prohm, the guys he gets, and what he stands for.

 

[BCClone]

Will go front office. Unless.........a true blue blood opens up. A Kansas, Duke, or Kentucky type job where you don't have to work so hard to recruit to.

I think there is more truth to this than we want to admit (plus Parrish is well keyed into the college coaching scene):



Add in his flirtations with Minnesota back in the day and the smoke around him and Ohio State last year...

Tough situation for him. Didn’t really get a chance to get his team there

 

[Cyfan1965]

If there are betting odds on whether he goes back to college or stays in NBA I want a piece of that action ASAP. Come on Vegas!

 

[brianhos]

I wonder if he sticks in the NBA, on the personnel side of things, rather than go back to college

I cannot see him going back to college. He will be an assistant or headcoach in Minnesota.

Things can change but I know for a fact when he left for Chicago he said he would never be a college head coach again

Yeah, I strongly disagree with Parrish and his take here. But I understand the thought process.

He may have been innovative for college ball, but pros........he basically took his old Timberwolves offense from when he was there and ran it at ISU.

 

[Cydkar]

I don't think he enjoyed the fishbowl at ISU. I know I would HATE it.

 

[Die4Cy]

That's too bad. Fred knows the game and would have been successful with the right players.

Fred has never really failed before, so I'd be surprised if he just hangs it up. But I wouldn't be shocked if he didn't jump right back in right away, either. His views of the college game may have changed after coaching pros on a poor team as well.

 

[mj4cy]

Yeah, I strongly disagree with Parrish and his take here. But I understand the thought process.

I'm a huge Parrish fan but he's way off here. Fred hated recruiting. He's still going to have to recruit wherever he would go.

 

[ISUTex]

When will the Bulls fire Jon Paxon and Gar Foreman? The Bulls situation is 100% their fault. It's a joke.

Hey Fred, come be an associate AD and fundraise at ISU!!

I think the whole "don't like recruiting thing" was overblown. Assistants can help you recruit, they can't coach 100+ games for you in the NBA every year.

Also if recruiting was easy at blue bloods you wouldn't see KU, UNC, Louisville etc all bending the rules and cheating. It's a nasty business everywhere all the time.

 

[Ames]

Firmly entrenched. He was just saying what ISU fans wanted to hear.

 

[discydisc]

Don't get it, the bulls should be looking to lose every game the rest of the season and take Zion or Barret, as long as GarPax are in charge the Bulls are hosed.

 

[Jiub]

The bulls can tank even better without a coach. Will Prohm hire Hoiberg as assistant coach? One can dream!!!

BS. His opinion is crap and based on a falasy that somehow the ISU job is garbage.
