Though former Iowa State Cyclones head men’s basketball coach Fred Hoiberg is now in the NBA and coaching the Chicago Bulls, he isn’t a man to not say goodbye.
The ISU alum returned to Ames and gave his final press conference for the school, which currently ranks No. 4 in the NBC Sports’ College Basketball Talk “Way Too Early” Rankings.
Though it may seem Hoiberg had little hesitation in leaving Ames, that couldn’t be further from the truth.
“Obviously, I would have been very happy being here my entire career and I wasn’t lying about that,” Hoiberg said.
