Was it Nebraska or Michigan?
One team was turned down by an up-and-coming head coach and instead hired a famous alumn which is a respected assistant coach in the NBA.
The other team hired a coach who has already shown he can be extremely successful and could be considered the best hire for a basketball program this off-season.
This is not to be critical of Michigan’s hire of Juwan Howard. He may end up being a great hire. This is more about Nebraska’s hire of Fred Hoiberg.
Michigan could be considered to be a top eight program over the past twelve years.
