Before we begin let’s acknowledge that this web site has played a large part in mythologizing Fred Hoiberg. We started a mere three weeks after Hoiberg was announced as head coach and set the tone early on with our views of The Mayor. After back-to-back NCAA tournament berths we anointed him Dictator For Life. So I get it, we’re part of the problem when it comes to the adoration of the man.
Lately that adoration has turned in to mythologizing, and that mythologizing has turned in to a sort of step-dad type of treatment for Steve Prohm.
