Nebraska head coach Fred Hoiberg issued a statement the morning after he was taken to the hospital and diagnosed with influenza A (common cold). Hoiberg was seen in discomfort on the Cornhuskers' bench.
Hoiberg left the game in the second half and was taken to the hospital. After his test results, he was released from the hospital.
The timing of Hoiberg's illness came shortly after the NBA suspended its season due to the coronavirus outbreak. A Utah Jazz player tested positive for COVID-19. The player is reportedly Jazz center Rudy Gobert. The World Health Organization declared a pandemic on Wednesday.
