Hoiberg Hired!!!

Oh no, my anger was at the local and national media who seemed to be trying to undermine the AD :oops: Guys like Andy Katz saying Nebraska should never aim higher than a 116-114 record in 7 years :smirk2:
And those guys, like Andy Katz ,who havnt a clue, because they just dont know.
Tell the zags that, or even unlv etc.No, those guys zippers arent big enough to ever say
Though, letting them off the hook, as in, our Huskers can now climb higher without a poisoned mind set, is finally true, much like the same people making claims cfb has changed too much, and SF and crew are burying the same bullbleep in his sport.

I can accept that. Just a bit befuddled having read seven days and here it is 5 days. All, is good!
Who's doing the hiring?
If you already got your man, 'officially', he hasnt been introduced, but will this tuesday to come.
Its most likely still posted, and FH hasnt been here to announce etc, so it completes the majority of requirements I guess.

That's what I said in an earlier post; except that if you go to the Huskers Athletic official site, his picture and labeled as new men's basketball coach so it seems a bit muddled. But if the contract date is 4/2/19 ...

Exactly.
The guys making the call with Hoibergs acceptance still has to happen officially.
 
“Lincoln is a special place for our family. I was born in Lincoln, my grandfather Jerry Bush was the head coach at Nebraska, my other grandfather was a long-time professor there, and my parents are proud graduates of the University of Nebraska. Nebraska has always felt like a second home.

“I had the opportunity to coach at Pinnacle Bank Arena with the Bulls, and I have seen first-hand that the facilities are as nice as any in the country. When you couple that with a loyal and passionate fan base, you can see there is great potential for the future of Nebraska basketball.”

“We are excited to welcome Fred, his wife Carol, and their family to Nebraska. He will be an outstanding representative of the University, and a great leader for our men’s basketball program,” Moos said.

“When you look at him, you see an individual who has had success as a player and a coach,” Moos said. “Fred’s background will sell itself on the recruiting trail, and help us bring in the type of student-athletes needed to compete at the highest level. His style of play not only will be appealing to prospective recruits, but will also provide our great fans an entertaining brand of basketball.”
 
Talked to my ISU brother a bit ago. He reiterated what a great hire Hoiberg will be, class act, good family man, etc.
Some of you saw an earlier post where I mentioned a comment I got from my dickish ISU alum, brother-in-law, Dan, at a family funeral this week. Dan expressed skepticism when I said the 'word of the street' was that Nebraska was getting his former coach. He opined that Hoiberg had a lot more attractive options to consider than Nebraska.

Since I don't see my brother-in-law that often, my dilemma is figuring out how bring it up with him without looking like a dick myself.

If I call or text him now, that would definitely be showing my own dickish side. He'd immediately know that I just wanted to rub the news in his face. I'm thinking my best strategy would be to be patient, bite my tongue, and wait for our next family get together this summer.

I want this cold dish of revenge to be served up in the COOLEST, nonchalant way possible. hehehe :evilgrin0007:

It is very hard to be patient sometimes. The reward; however, will be well worth the wait!

This is where my impatience would have me drop the hammer on ol' cousin Dan.

I wouldn't fret over it go ahead and be yourself.

It'll spoil the fun if I show I'm as big an a-hole as he is. :)

Yeah, that's me too, howie.

I'm convincing myself to play this like I've flopped a monster hand in Texas Hold 'em poker. I've got to remain outwardly cool and calm....and be patient as I string my opponent along as long as humanly possible for the maximum impact ... and then lay the smack down on the river, baby!!.

The reward ... will be well worth the wait!

Ooooooh Yeeeah! :CORN:

LOL DrF! You absolutely have the perfect idea and attitude. It will be so worth it in the end. Especially, as a bit of time goes by and you haven't said anything. BIL is thinking to himself, "Man, I really got by with one there." or, more likely since he's a dick, "Man, that Dude doesn't even have the testudinal fortitude to slam me for insulting his precious Alma Mater." So, he'll be crowing to himself. Sooner or later, he'll lay another insult down and WHAM! The smack down on the river and dude will be crawling off into a hole, licking his wounds. It will be absolutely EPIC!

“I can’t express how excited I am to be back on the sidelines and to be coaching at a university that means a lot to my family and me,” Hoiberg said in a press release. “Lincoln is a special place for our family. I was born in Lincoln, my grandfather Jerry Bush was the head coach at Nebraska, my other grandfather was a longtime professor there, and my parents are proud graduates of the University of Nebraska.

“Nebraska has always felt like a second home.”
