KuJa hit it on the head. Cael Sanderson and Fred Hoiberg are the two most iconic athletes in Iowa State history. Both were given head coaching opportunities at their alma mater and both cruised for greener pastures within 4-5 years.
Also... went ahead and Googled "Matt Campbell named Toledo coach" and here's a quote from Jesus himself...
"Honestly, there's no place I'd rather be than right here at the University of Toledo," said Campbell, a native of Massillon, Ohio, and a 2002 graduate of Mount Union.
Dude is a helluva salesman, you gotta give him that. The "I told my wife, if these fans sell out to come watch garbage, imagine if we win in Ames..." line is some of his better salesmanship.
If he's the Iowa State head coach in 2020 I'll donate $20 to some Clone fan's season tickets.
