My life was better before I knew it.

If you didn't want to know, you shouldn't have clicked on the thread.

It was there. I was there. I really had no other option.

Well even though I agree with most of the others that have posted here I'll go over the OP list of possible coaches. Well Jeff H. isn't leaving the NBA, and the rest of the coaches mentioned would be a huge step back.

 

[Wesley]

Dana Altman. He needs a change.

 

[ripvdub]

TJ Otz and Matt Abdel. as co head coaches. Maybe bring in Stinson as asst.

 

[erikbj]

We would just shut the program down and maybe just close the school

 

[Hayes30]

Phil Jackson

Let's be honest, just about everyone is going to be step back after the mayor. Nobody wants to be the guy that takes over after a legend.

My prediction: by the time Fred is ready to leave, Hornacek is ready for a change. Setting the over/under at 8 years

Why would Hornacek leave the NBA where he is succeeding to coach ISU for less money when they essentially spurned him for Hoiberg?

true but I think Fred has elevated ISU to a top Tier Basketball school that would be coveted by many good coaches.

Either Coach K, Izzo, Baheim, Pitino, or Donovan.

Edit: Almost forgot about Bill Self.

They'll be dead by the time Fred leaves.

He probably wouldn't. But that would pretty much be the only name that would even make a person somewhat OK with it.

God help the person that comes in here after Hoiberg. It won't be pretty.

I would wand Fred to promote from within a young and up coming coach who's great with X's and O's and that he's helped groom, and who help Fred put out great teams. I'd trust his judgement.

Agree 100%, I just don't think he would be an option.

And again Fred isn't leaving.

 

[RustShack]

With that being said I don't think we worry about that for a long long time, if ever.

By the time Fred's ready to leave, this will be a destination school with no reason for him to leave.

Charlie Henry aka our Kevin Ollie (works under legendary coach to become his successor)?

Lol I was actually going to say the name, but didn't want flamed.

Jeff Horner. Pretty good coach at Valley. Local ties. Young. Social media savvy.
