No matter what Fred Hoiberg said Tuesday during his introductory news conference at Memorial Stadium, his words surely put a smile on the faces of fans, alums, returning players and recruits.
A confident and poised Hoiberg, introduced by Director of Athletics Bill Moos as the new Nebraska men’s basketball coach, provided detailed answers, while measuring the right amount of dry humor, before some 300 spectators and a nation-wide television audience.
“The vision that Bill laid out to me when we started talking about this opportunity, I see real potential here to have long-term success,” Hoiberg said.
