- Relationships
As we usher in the new High School and say goodbye to the old, we wanted to celebrate both future and past with one of Ames High's more well known alums, Fred Hoiberg. Fred was a multi-sport athlete as a Little Cyclone and is of course most well known for leading the school to it’s sixth high school state basketball championship in 1991. He went on to star at Iowa State and then the NBA for 10 years where he became one of the league’s most prolific shooters. Fred has since returned to his birthplace of Lincoln Nebraska where he is serving his fourth season as head coach for the University of Nebraska Men’s Basketball team.
In this episode Fred and I talk about the privilege of growing up in Ames, the advantages of playing multiple sports, academic expectations, Mistletoe Dance, recruitment dilemma, Johnny Orr, Forced Retirement, and Nebraska Legacy. Enjoy!
