Nick Babb - ISU - KA - Florida

[chiefhawg]

Is it ironic that Nick goes to ISU and Hoiberg may be in the NBA next year with the Bulls. And KA may becoming here to fill Nick's slot because Donovan left Florida for OKC in the NBA.

Yes, there is enough irony there to make your stool turn black. More irony than a plate of fried liver and onions. More irony than a rusty nail.......

I just wish players could transfer without having to sit out if their head coach leaves.

I see what you did there

I think the Bulls got cold feet on Hoiberg based on his heart troubles. I read an article on it a while back.

I've been watching that situation closely because I'm a Magic fan, and I'd love to see Thibodeau come on down and teach these yung'ns.

I just don't get why the Bulls would wanna get rid of him. He's a great defensive coach. Would be a big mistake I think.

Supposedly the Bulls brass are clashing with him hard. But as a Bulls fan, I agree with you. I think he's a great coach and I think we'd be idiots to let him go.

after a few years players will normally get tired of the same schtick especially if the coach is kind of anal.  Reports from the Chicago media suggest this is the case and that the same goes for management.  I think he is a really good coach but needs to go to a team that is on the edge of winning big.  I think if he was now going to the Bulls instead of 5 years ago they would be in a better situation.  I think it is all of nothing for him and the Bulls this year but I asked a friend what would happen if the Bulls go to the finals and then get beat in a very close series?? How would you fire him then??

Nick chose ISU because of his family's relationship with the coach and school. His brother did the same thing. Transferred from Penn State and ended up having a solid career with ISU before leaving after his senior year and is now with the celtics

Tough minded and none wavering coaches do not last long in the nba

Blows my mind. I think he's an amazing coach.

The Griz and Pels are my teams (if I'm allowed two teams, haha).

Word in New Orleans is that they'll go after him hard if the Bulls fire him.
