This was a tough call for me. I had high expectations for both. Both had big hills to climb, but their resumes indicated that both were up for the job. Hoiberg has had one less year so far, but basketball is usually easier to make a quick turnaround due to the small rosters and the fact that young players are frequently key contributors.
In the end, I voted for Frost primarily because Nebraska football has a history of success whereas Nebraska basketball has historically been mediocre or worse. So I am used to Nebraska basketball ineptitude, but not so with Nebraska football. I really thought that by the end of year 3 under Frost we would see significant improvement.
Also, this article makes a pretty good case on behalf of Hoiberg.
