Hoiberg to Huskers
- Thread starter CaliforniaCy

Fred is too smart to follow Self, I mean he won what 14 straight conference titles, can you imaging if Fred does not win conference his first 2 years?
No way he takes that, on the other hand UCLA is a train wreck only way to go is up. And he would be near Lakers/Clippers franchises.
He used ISU for a stepping stone to the NBA. What would he use NU for? A stepping stone to a better job like ISU? Doesn't make any sense.
I hear people say things like Fred it too smart to...
But this is the same guy that went into a complete disaster in Chicago under management that everyone knows is suspect at best. IDK
Sounds like you are also into cheering for Hoiberg.
Cheering for your team and entertainment are far closer to being coterminous than mutually exclusive. More hype for the KU-ISU matchup while also having a better chance to win due to Hoiberg being a step down from the typical KU coach would be fun, entertaining, and consistent with cheering for your team.
To trivialize my point, I’d feel even better if they hired our beloved Naz Long. Due to KU being a blueblood, it doesn’t negatively impact ISU, but brings a stronger coupling of the programs in the media, while also likely decreasing KU’s winning percentage. Hoiberg does the same to a degree, but is actually a slight possibility if Self were to leave.

Depending on how the rest of his coaching career shakes out, I would argue that he may have come out ahead in the long term at ISU. Will never know now, and frankly I think we are in as good (if not better) situation now, but based on how things were looking at ISU he would have had a very long and financially rewarding career had he not jumped to that mess in Chicago.
He won't have that problem with the Nebraska media.
Except for the knowledge that Nebraska was going after the Bradley coach before any other media or message board posters.
Man it'd be great if they hire the Bradley coach, I live in Husker country and these guys didn't know who Fred was a month ago, now they are all experts on his career and cbb in general. This would be better than a Niang level of trolling.
He would’ve had to do something to deal with all the NBA rumors or he’d have been going up against Fran for recruits.
You mean to tell me that husker fans didn't know something existed outside of husker athletics?!?!
(Note the intentional lack of capitalization, they don't deserve it.)
So apparently Nebby's got an interim coach at present.

I said NEW TJ and Matt. There's always up and comers, and I imagine Fred is privy to those types because he is good at the front office networking stuff.
