I am not BB junky like many on here, but finally hiring someone who I have actually heard of before hiring is a great hire!

Congrats on a great hire. Fred Hoiberg is a damn good coach. You will be much improved very quickly! Also if you are old enough to remember his playing days what a great player he was. NBA career cut short course to heart ailment

Praise Jesus that he didn't say "Nebrasketball." May that word die a horrible and miserable death, never to return.
I saw him and wife at Red Robin in West Omaha last night.. I was surprised, but both he and his wife were easy to spot lol... He was decked out in brand new husker gear, he was taller than me (Im 6'2") and the pictures of both match google searches... That and I heard him talking to a lady named Nancy regarding a business deal.
I agree...think this will happen quicker than many of the fans think possible.
You talk like some fans will be calling for FH to fire his head assistant during year 1. That’s crazy. Oh, wait.

He should do this at the press conference:

Erstad's never won a regional far from a great coach, he's a mediocre coach at best.
Arguably is correct. It is yet to be seen how successful both can be at Nebraska .Time will tell.
Fred is a good coach, but far from the hottest name in college basketball. He had some good success at Iowa State but had a lot of off the court issues with the type of players he brought in. Definitely an upgrade. Don’t be surprised if he’s in the NBA in 3 years.
Why are you here.... Oh wait sounds like sour grapes.... Go away
Yep. Member for 11+ years, first post on this board.
I'd be curious to see what Hoiberg's buyout structure is in the contract he signed yesterday. My guess is much different than the one he signed at ISU, which was built essentially saying "If you're offered an NBA job, you'd be stupid not to take it." I don't recall the exact numbers, but it was quite a significant difference between if he left for a different college job vs. an NBA job.
Works both ways, though. Hoiberg had his eye on eventually coaching in the NBA and structuring his contract in such a way at ISU was a big sticking point in getting him on the sideline in Ames. Maybe that itch has been scratched. Once the contract becomes public, we'll see (I'm sure the OWH and LJS has already submitted their FOIA requests).
