***2026 NCAA MBB coaching carousel***

Heard Hoiberg’s name thrown out there in a podcast I was watching last night.

They hadn’t heard his name being mentioned at all, they were just throwing out some possible names they could go after. I thought it was stupid…. why would Fred leave Nebby for KSU?

I will say…. it would tick me off. It was one thing for Fred to leave for the NBA, and then go to Nebby, but if he goes into the Big 12 to compete against us…. ummmm…. no! Please don’t ever do that to us Fred!
 
KSU's fans and media excel at thinking a well-known, well-established coach is going to make a parallel move or downgrade to come coach them.

Brian Wardle wouldn't be a terrible fit there either. Pretty good coach and giant ******* which is kind of their vibe.

Wardle's daughter plays for the Bradley women's team and is only a sophomore that might be a factor.

Oddly, Bob Huggins could make sense at K-State. Decent, cost-effective, stopgap solution while the Tang financial folly is sorted out. He has the familiarity with KSU, and a salvagable career redemption arc. Concern would be age, but for 1-2 yrs, is that a real issue? I suspect he could assemble a very solid staff, and his hack em to hell defensive system can be adopted quickly, and works in the Big 12. Cost savings alone makes this worth kicking the tires on a Hall of Famer.
