Iowa State fans say thank you to Fred Hoiberg
Yeah, it’s finally official.
Fred Hoiberg has left his gig as Iowa State’s basketball coach in favor of coaching the Chicago Bulls.
Iowa State fans had plenty of time to digest this turn of events (which was officially announced Tuesday), and many of the Cyclone faithful took to Twitter to show their appreciation for Hoiberg.
Can't blame him for taking his dream job but it still has ISU Cyclones feeling empty hearted #CyclONEnation #Bulls #Hoiberg @ISUMayor32
