My 1st thought was "Tango and Cash".

I could be talked into the assistant route.

Oof do you really trust that going that route is any better than the midmajor route? I was CERTAIN Hoiberg was our can't miss unicorn. I trust nothing about why which coach would/should be successful here anymore. Its a crap shoot. And if you believe that then I'd rather gamble on midmajor on the cheap then shell out for the power five.

I have seen enough. I am leaning he may actually be let go at the end of the season.

I agree with this 100%. Stating Healthcare professionals only care about a person's health and well being is not a political statement. Stating that facts are in fact facts is not a political statement. Stating that a person is responsible for the choices they make is not a political statement.

Keeping the guy responsible for recruiting the talent that has produced the worst three years in Nebraska basketball history is a special kind of stupid.

Feels more like when the parents are only staying together for the kids. The kids being a ridulously large buyout.

No worries. I got you.

No other coach in Nebraska basketball history has been this bad.

Same thought!

So he's a cheaper Hoiberg

You literally described this board and the media coverage of this team this preseason.

If Nebraska football is a genius at this what does that make Nebraska basketball?

Hoiberg ain't getting it done. This year. Next year. The year after.

Oooof That's gonna be a tough walk back. And who walks it back? For the forum it came out on my thinking is this - If you are associated with the team then you DEFINITELY don't want this to come out at all. Regardless the forum. My other thought is how athletes receive training on how to deal with the media. And Kobe's been at this a while. A super senior. I question if he was nudged into this. It will definitely be interesting to see what happens

The only one this should be a bad look for is the coaching staff. If there is ever fallout from telling the truth its not the parties involved of telling the truth thats the problem.

And because its him saying these things it makes me believe there is a close to zero % chance Hoiberg is the Coach to turn this thing around. To be fair the % wasn't much higher before he said it

This is where I'm at as well. Except it doesn't make me happy just less sad.

This isn't to single you out because I agree he is most likely retained. This is more why I don't agree with it. I understand the financial restraints in everyone arguments on retaining Hoiberg. It seems to me though if you retain Hoiberg the end game is still crap. Unless, of course, you believe he's still the guy to get it done. I may not have this right at all but I understand it that Hoiberg is due 18.5 million if he is let go this year and 3.5 million less each season thereafter. To your point about Trev continuing to give Hoiberg every resource he needs to succeed if he is retained I agree. But I will also point out Hoiberg has had the most resources of any Nebraska basketball coach ever. Its a big leap for me to think thats the issue. Which brings me to my view. What is a season worth? Whats 2 seasons worth? Again, if you think he's the guy I get it. Disregard what I'm saying. But if you don't I can't understand the justification that a 15mil buyout vs a 18.5mil is worth an entire basketball season. Or a 11.5mil buyout is worth 2 seasons. I just can't believe that the 3.5mil or 7mil Nebraska saves for 1 or 2 years makes up for the losses in revenue other places. I hope to win the lotto and I hope Hoiberg restructures his contract if he's retained but I give both close to the same odds.
