While this seems to point to Moos doing his due diligence, as he should.  This makes me a bit uncomfortable, since we still have a coach preparing players for a game Wednesday.  If we make a run in the NIT, this speculation may go on for a few weeks.  Not sure its right.

Just in case no one has noticed, an anagram for Fred Hoiberg is Beg- for- hired. Now that's really eerie.

You got way too much time on your hand!!  LOL

No, he didn't know. Not then anyway. I didn't listen to the podcast, so I don't know how it was brought up. But if Miles was the one who brought up the name Hoiberg, it was purely coincidental. That name is an easy guess, though, for anybody speculating about a coaching change. Didn't take any kind of rocket scientist to speculate Hoiberg would be an attractive candidate given ... he's not currently employed. And has connections to the area, etc. Duh. Miles isn't stupid. He can make the same kinds of educated guesses that literally dozens of other people made.

 

 

How is that manipulation? Seriously, how?  

 

Did he force Moos' hand to make a statement at the worst time for Moos and the Atletic Department but at the most strategic time to emote support for Tim after a nice three game uptick. Perhaps Moos had told Tim that at the end of the season he would make an announcement 45 minutes after Tim's post game press conference. It's up for interpretation what would mark the end of the season in this case. As you said Tim is not stupid. In fact he is quite clever.

No. They were told Moos would make an announcement. They weren’t told exactly what it would say, but something along the lines of what it said.

I guess I am in the minority here, but if a man gives his word that he will tell us at the end of the season, then I take him at his word and wait till the end of our season.

 

Kind of the "OLD NEBRASKAN GUY" on this one.

 

I also see this as one of the problems with social media and the press trying to be first.. Too get the scoop.. 

 

Okay now I will go eat some bran and get ready for bed it is like 6:00.

That was told to us by whom?

From what I have heard (I dont care if y'all think the integrity behind this post is lacking, as I dont post much) the credibility of the source Jeff Goodman has regarding his tweet is very close to Fred Hoiberg.

 

This probably applies to the invisible elephant that represent Larry Eustacy mores than Hoiberg

 

 

[Bugeaters1]

This is so true.

 

[FredsSlacks]

i'm worried that hoiberg is using us as leverage for another job. typically when something like this gets leaked, it means the candidate is trying to leverage something.

 

i really hope i'm wrong, but it's just strange that this would leak out.

Yup a number of rumors seem to have legs, including contract terms.  Oh my.   If this comes to pass, this isn't merely a home run, it is a grand slam hire.

Does this mean we have a paid one way ticket out of Nebrasketball Purgatory?

Oh many Cip..I will not count our chickens before they are hatched.  I have hope...I have a lot of hope.

Curious...Frost and Hoiberg. Does Nebraska have the best duo of coaches in the country? Maybe Beilein and Harbaugh or Izzo and Dantonio. That’s all I can come up with.

Oklahoma would be pretty tough to beat. Obviously Michigan and Michigan St as you mentioned. Purdue is pretty good too. As is Notre Dame.

I was just trying to make a joke about Basnett being the next official tweeter because his tweet implied something that hadn't been stated publicly. I mean, there's two rumors contained within a single tweet: 1) the job is open; and 2) Hoiberg had been approached.

 

"IT'S OFFICIAL"-ly the silly season..... here. we. go.

I gotta say, that store is awesome...worth the trip right Phil?

I'm not even kidding. I worked at the old 70th and O in HS and was blown away by how HyVee has changed . 

[Minnesota_Husker]

I don’t have any inside sources.

But if Hoiberg was trying to use this leak as leverage one job could be with the Minnesota Timberwolves.

I know Glen Taylor has been in contact with him or at least that is the rumor up here. It’s well known how Fred feels about recruiting but his last NBA stint wasn’t great.

I sure hope he picks the Huskers but the wolves might get nervous and move past Ryan Saunders as an interim and just hire Fred.
