ISU coach Fred Hoiberg talks with the media after Iowa State was announced as a 3-seed in the South region for the 2015 NCAA tournament. Hoiberg hosted an NCAA selection show party at his home March 15, just a day after the team won its second consecutive Big 12 Championship in Kansas City, Mo.
Chicago Tribune Bulls writer K.C. Johnson tweeted on May 28: “Bulls can say what they want about going through the process. They’re locked and loaded on hiring Hoiberg. His job to lose."
It is speculation that Hoiberg will leave Iowa State for the Bulls, but here are five candidates who could take over in the case he does take that road.
