Half of this might be true. Not sure Fred will want to go to a program that's about to be crippled by NCAA sanctions

As much as it would give me pleasure to see that, I highly doubt the NCAA will "cripple" the KU program. Self, et al. can claim they had no knowledge of the money deal. Unless, of course, other issues become public knowledge.

Why do I feel the people who support Hoiberg are like Trump supporters - no matter what he does it's always the right decision? If he goes to Nebraska he's nothing but a hypocritical liar. I hope he fails. He left. us high and dry.

Why is so hard for libs to keep politics in the cave? TDS?

Political fanboys (and their reverse haters, of course) have gotten so bad nowadays that, in order to emphasize how much one is a fanboy of player/coach/team X, we compare them to some political fanboys/homers, not the other way around like it originally was.

Being a homer for ISU or Fred Hoiberg is just clean fun, though. Jamie Pollard, Steve Prohm, Georges Niang, and Fred Hoiberg do not have any nuclear codes. We might not like them, but I think we are smart enough to recognize a KU or Nebraska homer is fundamentally similar to us, just having fun, and none of the debates really mean anything.

Frankly, people being as discerning and level-headed between different figures and factions about about politics as they were about sports would be a huge step up.

Can you imagine Fred and his family, the godchild of Ames, living in his hometown,qb and bball stud, trying to live a normal life? Even average fans living in town seeing Fred and thinking "hey he's a great guy, I'll just say a quick hello" he won't mind. Fred and his family sitting there, stopping mid chew on a Hoiberger, having to put down his Coke, gulp down the bite and politely react with the calm demeanor that is Fred. Meanwhile his wife Carol is shooting daggers at the incessant and constant, well meaning fanbase disrupting there daily lives. After dinner they retreat back to the Gilbert compound never to be seen in public again. .......then in Chicago......Fred is sitting at a normal popular gathering spot right inside the door with his family and having a great meal. People walking in recognize him and know he's the bull's coach.....meh...who gives a ****....he'll be here today and maybe gone tomorrow....that's life..... Carol smiles, Fred smiles........at the same time they both utter "this is the life!"
In Chicago, there's no way that somebody doesn't yell, "Hoiberg, you suck!".

holy crap; there's a lot of posters with actual serious opinions on this. And we're up to 9 -pages!!
Please feel free to bump my reply and verbally humiliate me if this 'Fred-to-Nebby' rumor comes to pass, because right now I think it's stoopid. :)
