Is Hoiberg the coach of this team next year?

[huskerbill85]

I think it has to be asked. Post your predictions.

[Woody Boyd]

No.

[hskr4life]

I said last year… it was post season or bust for me… we opted for another year because we heated up towards the end of the year.

 

So I stated that it was dancing or bust for me this year and I’m holding to that.

no

Hard to know. Trev loves bringing back historically bad coaches. 

[huskerbaseball13]

How could Trev bring him back? He gone. Next.

Same the roster looks good on paper and perhaps the question is premature given the amount of season left. I understand getting dog walked by Creighton but tonight was awful and that's not a good Minnesota team. It's hard to see progress at the moment

It's a long season.  Agree Postseason (NCAA or Home NIT game) or he needs to be gone.  Tonight was worse than Sunday.  Embarrassing

Screw the home game NIT.  It’s year what? 5? NIT should have been achieved already.  Dance or bust for me personally.

With Frost my understanding it might have been some out forces at play that forced him back. I'd argue this season is the year that Trev brought back the historically bad coach.

 

I hope this team can make a run like last year but the defense doesn't look nearly as good.

Because that’s what Trev does. Hoiberg will probably get another raise and we will enjoy another season of the Zooperstars and students from opposing teams sitting front row at our arena.

No one with any kind of future that is in their right mind wants this job

[cornfed24-7]

Muahahahahahaha it has begun. Bubble or bust. There is a bunch of season left. I am not optimistic. This team is soft. And there is some sort of beef between Tominaga and Brice. But mostly this team is soft.

Nah, he brought Hoiberg back this year when he had every right to fire him last year. Can’t happen again without Trev having egg on his face. 
 

I would be shocked if Hoiberg lasts beyond this year.

Is Brice related to Teddy Allen?

Going to take helluva turnaround

Yeahhh— coaching search will be slim pickens but you’ve got to try something. 

[hhcmatt]

I guess someone's got to be that guy and start this thread 

[Nebrasketball1979]

Blow this thing up and bring someone in that had can develop talent.  We have the resources to recruit good players here.  Relying on the portal for multiple starting spots is not a recipe for sustained success.

[Ron Mexico]

Only if he makes the NCAA's.

Exactly. He has a history of making poor decisions. He retained Frost and let Kalen DeBoer go and it was a such a bad decision he had to fire Frost after like three games. If Rhule works out though I would say he redeemed himself. Firing Hoiberg was a no-brainer. Historically bad coach at a historically bad basketball school. But hey, let’s bump him up to his old salary and let it fly. 

[Nebrasketball1979]

Maybe in a few weeks John Cook can pick up a few books and learn how to coach basketball

It's a fair question no? 

[imnothipp]

i think maybe Matt was trying to start the post game thread and did not realize he was in this thread. just a guess

No way you should fire Hoiberg after last year, especially after firing the football coach.  It also helped that it looked like Hoiberg had learned how to win in this league.

 

It looks like he forgot it all this year.
