Ames Trib: Hoiberg told Diallo he couldn't guarantee return for 2015-16

i'm guessing that was for Bulls negotiation only. Same with the T'Wolves job jumping into the equation - he was simply negotiating with the Bulls.

If it was just for negotiation purposes he could have used, oh i don't know, the job he currently held at ISU for leverage haha. He wanted nothing to do with that though, he was committed to getting the hell out.

orlando, t'wolves and any others were only to see how serious chicago was to contract terms that he preferred, not vice versa. i would bet his friends in the t'wolves organization floated his name for his benefit on his behalf.

contract is already signed. 5 years for 25 mill.

This really isn't close to the same thing.. Ferentz did get some looks but the level of serious interest and pursuit on both sides was never close to this.

Everyone knows that Hoiberg wanted to be an NBA coach... Ferentz never seemed to really want the NFL.

...... but wanted to use the NFL talk to bloat up his Iowa salary. He wanted the NFL in that regard. lol.

Freddie is not leaving L'Ames. It is free marketing, by simply keeping your mouth shut. Sound familiar Hawkeye fans? Remember 2002 thru about 2011 with the constant Kirk to the NFL? KF could have did much better on the recruiting front, but he didn't have to do much to get recruits to at least listen... He does have a ton of players that went to the NFL...

The choirboy aint going anywhere. By not saying a word, everyone talks. His recruiting will be much easier. What player wouldn't want to play for a coach wanted by the pros? Especially in basketball.

The choir boy boarding a private jet in L'Ames this afternoon headed to Chicago. Suck it, junkie, and all others who said he wasn't leaving.

He gone...
