Fred Hoiberg Iowa State University Offense: 3 Guard Baseline Play

Written by Coach Peterman

I have coached at the NCAA Division 2 (Southwestern Oklahoma State University), NAIA (USAO), and JUCO Levels (Blinn College and Carl Albert State College) as well as high school. I just felt that fellow coaches especially young coaches need to constantly work on their “game”. Just like the basketball players that we coach. We as coaches need to improve ourselves. That is my story and why I do this blog.

Fred Hoiberg Iowa State University Offense: 3 Guard Baseline Play

I personally think that Fred Hoiberg Iowa State University Offense is a thing of beauty to watch. I don’t care that they lost to Kansas State University this past weekend. I love to watch a well-spaced, discipline fast break that scores points on anyone. There are very many teams that outrun Coach Hoiberg’s Iowa State University team back on transition defense.

I love how the Fred Hoiberg Iowa State Offense makes open lanes for his play-makers and how it trains the players to be in position to force the defense to make decisions. Most of the set plays from their offense are going to get your team shots at the basket or at the three point line. Coach Hoiberg doesn’t like the mid-range jumper like myself. I think that the three point shot changed the game.

I really like using this set play because the Fred Hoiberg Iowa State University Offense usually makes the post players open up the floor with high screens and you are able to get to the basket like this 3 Guard Baseline Play.

I know that Chicago Bulls are interested in Fred Hoiberg as I write this article. How many times do you get a chance to go “Home”? I am not talking about going to the Chicago Bulls either. I have been told that only an NBA job will make him leave Ames, Iowa. I think that Iowa State University will see Coach Fred Hoiberg for a long time. NBA Jobs will come and go….. going home…. you can only do once. He is doing a great job at it.
