Can we all just admit that Fred isn't a very good x's and o's basketball coach?
He was a great recruiter, but actually underperformed at ISU with all the talent he had. In the NBA, every team is loaded with talent, so the coaching is all that matters.... which is why he got the results he did. And at Nebby, he just hasn't gotten as lucky with his recruiting yet... and if he doesn't have talent.... he's screwed.
Love Hoiberg for everything he's done for ISU.... but he's is SO overrated as a basketball coach. His philosophy is to shoot 3's and not care much about defense.... always has been. If the shots fall, you win.... if not.... you're screwed.
