He’d be fine but we just better be ready for him to bolt once Roy retires. I won’t care though if he gets us out of this hole.
Stop this nonsense.
Less than 18 months before we got Holden we got Burton. Perhaps it was a difference in staffs ability to recruit? He got Georges to commit BEFORE he had a winning season. Morris and Thomas committed after just two years on the job.
Hoiberg had a mix of transfers, 4-year guys, and jucos. So pretty much the same mix we’ve always used to have success. The one class of 4 transfers is unique, and added to Scotty created a fun story, but don’t let that distract you from him having three all-time greats that were 4 year guys, plus two very good 4 year guys.
He had 2 grad transfers. Kane was big, immediately eligible get, but no more sought after than immediately eligible Bolton. With the new rule, a grad transfers are no longer a scarce resource.
it boggles my mind the people on here that think Hoiberg would be a bad hire or somehow ISU deserves something better. 2 bad years at Nebraska doesn't mean he can't coach or build a program. I would be elated if he came back especially if he thinks he will stay at the collegiant level.
I really don't get the Medved stuff. Dude got canned at Drake. How would JP sell that to Cyclone fans?
Did I not hear at some point that he said that one good thing about the pros is that he didn't have to recruit? I guess he could hire a great assistant to do the grunt work for him, then come in later in the process.
I was always told in prior customer service related job, that customer is always right (even though sometimes not). We fans are the customer. Fans perception is their perceived reality. Many if not most fans perceive TJ as a weaker coaching candidate. If JP hires TJ he likely will not have the initial support, interest and good will of the fans. Therefore a quick or even moderate turn-around becomes more difficult.
A charasmatic new coach, one with a style and identity that will get our fans excited, is what is needed. IMO we need a fresh start and a new face.
Enough said. UNLV should be more competitive and closer to the top of their conference by now, even if only TJ's second year there. If many now at UNLV don't want him, why should we? It's a red-flag.
My bad. He left after one season. Either way, does nothing to move the needle especially since he only lasted a year there.
I will pay attention. UNLV appears to be a 10 point underdog. Will they get this close or better when it matters most? I think not. They've shown their colors up to now.ISU fans should tune in to the UNLV (TJ) vs Utah St (Craig Smith) game tonight:

That is a huge IF there. Imagine thinking Fred is as hungry this time around, especially with having easily accumulated generational wealth by now.
Yeah, they are worse. Miles' teams were never this bad. I'd like an ISU program that wants to disrupt teams defensively, rebounds the ball, and runs a structured offense that takes good shots. That sure doesn't describe Fred's Nebraska program.
I keep seeing people on here mentioning Altman and I'm trying to figure out why on Earth he would leave a great situation at Nike U to coach in Iowa.
I beg to differ. I’ve been trying to get my wife to come with in September but she says she doesn’t want to..
We need to stop this fantasy that ISU is going to get a Power 5 head coach. Pollard couldn’t get a Power 5 head coach to come here after years of consistently making the tournament.
