When hoiberg was at Iowa state I remember that losing seemed to really bother him. He didn’t have much of a coach face after losing.

he has done a lot of losing since he followed his life long dream.

I mean, while i'm not pulling for them because **** nebraska, keep in mind we weren't all that good Hoiberg's first year either.

Scott Christopherson would be the best player on this Nebraska team.

By a decent margin.

I am not sure I see anybody on their team that would have been in the rotation, and certainly nobody even close to starting, for the 2011-2012 team.

I am not sure any of the guys they have on redshirts would, either.

That freshman that declined to sign a few weeks ago might have, but I have a suspicion he is going to get lots of attention in the spring and go elsewhere.

Fred can’t even blame this on Miles. He basically ran off all his players so these are all “Fred’s guys”.

Creighton is definitely fun to watch, but very small. I could see them sneaking in in that 10-12 seed range and being a very scary out because they have two dudes at guard and a great shooter in Ballock.

I'll never show any hatred at all for McD. Sure, he didn't live up to what was expected, but at least he also knew it and got out of here. I do respect him for that. Like you said, he did us a favor. And it was a win-win for both sides. He's a much better fit at Creighton.
I don’t understand why so much hatred for Morgan but not for McD. Because of his nice guy image? He is under investigation for cheating at Creighton so he may not even be a nice guy after all.

I don't know that there's much of any feeling for Morgan. Just a guy that couldnt get it done here. Could recruit but underperformed.

McDermott has the benefit of the 'ended well for both sides' feeling after he left and both ISU and Creighton became winners.

Prohm can’t win in year 3. “It’s all Hoibergs fault he just quit recruiting!”

Hoiberg can’t win in the first 2 months at Nebraska. “You can’t blame Tim Miles! That’s all Fred’s fault they suck!”
