The Mayor is back: Cyclones name Hoiberg head coach
NCAA Basketball Betting Lines
04/28/2010 -
Ames, IA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Iowa State has named Fred Hoiberg its head men's
basketball coach.
Hoiberg, who starred for the Cyclones in the 1990s, will be introduced at a
news conference Wednesday morning. He just finished his first season as the
vice president of basketball operations for the Minnesota Timberwolves.
Iowa State needed a replacement for Greg McDermott, who left Monday to take
the head coaching job at Creighton. He spent the past four seasons as head
coach of the Iowa State Cyclones, going 15-17 a year ago with a 4-12 record in
the Big 12, and was 59-68 overall since arriving in Ames in 2006.
The 37-year-old Hoiberg played for Iowa State from 1991-95 and then spent 10
years in the NBA, with stops in Indiana, Chicago and Minnesota. He averaged
5.4 points over a 541-game career.
Hoiberg received the nickname "The Mayor" when he received a write-in vote for
the Ames, Iowa mayoral race. He was honored as Mr. Basketball in Iowa for 1991
and the following season he enrolled at Iowa State.
Hoiberg served as Minnesota's assistant general manager for three seasons
after retiring from the NBA on April 17, 2006. He also had heart surgery on
June 28, 2005 to correct an enlarged aortic root.

Super Bowl XLIII, the Arizona Cardinals and the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Super Bowl XLIII is now set, the Arizona Cardinals and the Pittsburgh Steelers will meet each other on February 1st in Tampa's Raymond James Stadium to battle it out for the coveted Lombardi Trophy. The game kicks off at 6:00pm ET on NBC with announcers Al Michaels and John Madden covering the on-field action. Super Bowl XLIII betting odds at online bookmaker MySportsbook.com have the Steelers listed as an early -6.5 against the spread favorite.Super Bowl XLIII Betting Odds
Pittsburgh earned their passage to the big game by beating their division rival, the Baltimore Ravens, 23-14 in yesterday's AFC Championship Game. The Steelers jumped on Baltimore early, building a 13-0 first half lead, and never let up on their way to a fairly easy win. Although the Ravens did close to within two points in the fourth quarter, it never appeared as if they had enough offense to pull off the upset.
The Steelers dominating defense held Baltimore to a total of 198 yards while allowing them to convert just three third downs in 13 attempts. Pittsburgh also forced quarterback Joe Flacco into three interceptions, one of which safety Troy Polamalu returned fourty yards for a touchdown.
The Cardinals, by far the playoff team with the longest odds to reach Super Bowl XLIII, did so yesterday with a 32-25 upset of the Philadelphia Eagles in the NFC Championship. Arizona charged out of the gates and built a 24-6 halftime lead that had the Eagles venerable defense reeling. Quarterback Kurt Warner and wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald did most of the damage, connecting on three first half touchdowns.
Arizona, however, could not sustain their momentum and the Eagles took a 25-24 with 10:45 left to play in the fourth. The Cardinals, with the franchise's first Super Bowl appearance hanging in the balance, mounted a fourteen play, 72 yard touchdown drive that consumed 7:52 off the clock. Warner hit running back Tim Hightower on a short screen for the go-ahead, game clinching score that will forever live in Cardinal infamy.
MySportsbook.com's Super Bowl XLIII Betting Odds:
Pittsburgh Steelers -6.5 (-110), Over 46.5 (-110), -260 (Money line)
Arizona Cardinals +6.5 (-110), Under 46.5 (-110), +220 (Money line)
Matt Foust won both of his conference championship plays yesterday and he is ready to serve up plenty of Super Bowl action.
