Sounds like it's more than a rumor now
Hoiberg to Nebraska
- Thread starter EstronHawkKing
- Start date

I'm assuming that he'll be around a Top 3 highest paid coach plus a gigantic buyout along with probably a private jet and a promise from local PD that misbehaving players will be handled with very soft gloves.

This is bad news for Fran. Fran better get it together quick heading into year 10 and up the transfer and recruiting game because Fred is going to own him in year 1. Iowa will be an afterthought to Nebraska.
Nebraska has created huge excitement and national exposure with their two hires under new AD. Impressive. Barta has not created much excitement nor national buzz on any level with his coaching hires or extensions (more a punchline actually).
Now Iowa has to go up against Fred 2x a year. Ugh.

Moos is a jerkoff, but it appears that he knows what he's doing when it comes to hiring coaches.

A 6 year old could have hired Frost. As for Hoiberg, I still don't get it. His ties to Nebraska must be more than meets the eye.

A 6-year-old wouldn't have hired Todd Lickliter, though.
Nebby
The 46-year-old has ties to Nebraska. He was born in Lincoln and his grandfather, Jerry Bush, was the Cornhuskers’ coach from 1954-63. Also offered football scholarship there to play football. And 25 mil for 7 years.

That's not fair. At the time the hire was respectable and reasonable. Some power 5 team was taking TL that offseason. In hindsight we just ended up the losers.

Yes, I know all that...it just seems like pretty distant past. (the most recent connection is nearly 30 years old).
He'd of gotten the $$ anywhere.

Lincoln Star Journal has reported that Hoiberg took the job....7 years $25 million dollars!

I would assume there is something to the tune of 1 million in bonus opportunity each season as well.

now that its a done deal, the question is: will he steal in-state talent away from Iowa/Ia. St./UNI/Drake?
Only if they've already played at least one season of college basketball somewhere else

Yes, Fred will look for any opportunity, especially fast imo....but over time, Fred will do exactly what he did at ISU.....he will find a way to get the job done, and do it with whomever. If Fred could have gone to any other school but Nebraska. I saw a series of tweets in an article , all from ISU fans, of course, wishing him good luck, code words for "beat Iowa at any cost"

He didn't get any Iowa kids when he was at ISU. If anyone he goes after that Fr. at Ames, and he is a big ISU fan I guess.

I said the same thing. I didn't think any way Fred would go to a volleyball school.
