Let's hear it. Who do you think is ISU's best current head coach? I've included Ihmels because I believe he and Fennelly are the only two current ISU head coaches to have won the Big 12.
Your favorite coach?
- Thread starter jaretac
- Start date
So, who is your favorite then? Why is the best coach not the favorite? Because of the sport he is in or is this somewhat because he had a bad year?
If I were 11 and still had things like favorite coaches, I'd go with Hoiberg. He said hi to me once and that means he is my friend.
Maybe I should reword it to "which coach leaving would leave you the most disappointed"?
Seriously some people on this board are crazy for Hoiberg and though he had a great season, I don't see why when there are so many coaches at ISU who have done great things who get no attention.

I feel like you started this thread/poll...wanted people to vote for Fred...then when they did, call them out about it.
Not really. I was actually interested on how Fred and Paul compared to Bill. One is proven and the other two still kinda unproven.
Rhoads needs to win more than six games in the regular season. He has had a tough time with the schedule and lack of talent and I will give him a lot more time, but he still has done little at this point.
Hoiberg had one good year. What would this year been like without White though? Can Hoiberg do better next year? I hope so, I'm pulling for him, still a lot of unknown factors though.
Fennelly was in the Elite 8 just a few years ago and it wasn't his first. He has won conference titles for ISU and has one of the longer steaks in the nation for NCAA appearances.
I just find it interesting. Is it because it is FB and BB instead of WBB? Is it because WBB has been a little on the decline the past few years? Is it because we know he can get good teams, but also know that Bill is never going to win a national title and may very likely never win another conference title and with the other two there is glimmer of possibility?
My favorite coach was my assistant coach in my sophomore year of high school for basketball. He would always have something hilarious to say. My favorite being, "you can't fit a ten pound turd in a five pound bag."
As far as best, CJL sure has done a hell of a job since coming here, turning the VB program into a top 10 team. I think what she's done in her years here is probably the best results of any of our coaches in the last several years.
There's a ton to like about Fennelly, Rhoads, Hoiberg though.
