Nebraska coach Fred Hoiberg exits game, reportedly taken to hospital with apparent illness - Yahoo Sports - March 11, 2020

As news was breaking that the NBA had suspended its season after one of its players tested positive for coronavirus, Nebraska basketball coach Fred Hoiberg was creating a potential scare of his own. Hoiberg was looking visibly ill on the bench during Nebraska’s Big Ten Tournament game against Indiana.

Jesus, Fred Hoiberg looks awful. This is scary.

Eventually, Hoiberg had to exit the game early and was taken to a hospital, according to Stadium’s Jeff Goodman.

Nebraska head coach Fred Hoiberg been taken to the hospital, source told @Stadium. Was sick, left the game early and was told to go to be checked out immediately.

Just went to go find Fred Hoiberg. I’ve been told to remain away from the locker rooms.

Obviously, it is impossible to know what illness Hoiberg might have at this point — the coach does have a heart condition — but his condition is impossible to ignore as the fear of coronavirus becomes real across the sports world. An highly contagious illness has reached officially reached the highest level of professional sports, and there’s no telling where else it could be.

Either way, Hoiberg’s decision to coach the game in a stadium filled with fans — for the last time in a while — will go down as a prime example of what not to do when you’re feeling ill amid a pandemic.

Nebraska ended up losing 89-64 to Indiana. Players did not shake hands after the game, and Nebraska players and coaches did not speak to media after the game.

Hoiberg taken to hospital after the game. Hopefully he's okay and praying that it's not Corona.
