The Nebraska men's basketball team is emerging from a shutdown because of a COVID-19 outbreak that left coach Fred Hoiberg with a severe case.
"I got a little scared, to be honest with you, just with everything I've had in my past with two open heart surgeries and being fully dependent on a pacemaker," Hoiberg said Tuesday. "It concerned me. And I did have chest pains. That was the scary thing."
The 48-year-old Hoiberg was born with an abnormal aortic valve and had surgeries in 2005 and 2015, with the first one spelling the end of his NBA playing career.
