Prohm: "Hilton Coliseum is one of the top-five places to play in the country." #Cyclones

 

[ClonesTwentyOne]

Fantastic. Another week dropped in recruiting. We're only a month behind everyone else at this point. Nothing urgent coach.

:facepalm:

Half-court, passing lane and ball pressure defense is what Prohm says he’ll play.


Bobby La Gesse ‏@BobbyLaGesse 11s11 seconds ago
Man-to-man defense, tough minded in the half-court, is how Prohm describes his defense.

Prohm: "The best way to run is to defend, reboud and get the ball to your point guard." #Cyclones

 

[Dandy]

"Wing runner, rim runner and a trailer" aka Naz, Jameel and Georges.

Prohm: "Billy Kennedy was extremely influential to me. He taught me how to lead and that you have a platform to lead." #Cyclones

 

[Gunnerclone]

Fire his ***. Obviously his eye isn't on the ball

:facepalm:

You guys are right. Let's just sit back and watch everyone else do their thing during the final month leading up to the last live period before the majority of 2016's commit. That sounds like a great plan.

 

[Dandy]

"We're going to need to win that game" referencing playing Billy Kennedy's Texas A&M squad.

 

[chuckd4735]

Did he just say he doesn't need to win the Texas AM game?

Wow, nice change to hear the word 'Defense' mentioned ....

the things he's saying right now are part of recruiting. Lighten up Francis.

 

[CycloneErik]

Huh, he understands that he has to recruit players, even though Gunner is busy freaking out about it.

Prohm: "I want to be hands-on in recruiting, but once they get to campus I want our players and fans to help do the job." #Cyclones

 

[Thomasrickj]

He has a very business-like demeanor to him. I like it. When he thanked his family I definitely wasn't expecting him to shed a few tears. It's good to see a coach that's this happy to be here.

No you are right, he shouldn't worry about the current players at all. He need to only care about players that may or may not play here in the future.

 

[NorthCyd]

Fred use to talk about defense all the time. His eyes would glaze over a little when he talked about it, but at least he payed it some lip service.

We can't recruit as effectively as possible without a staff in place. Is that not a fact? What am I missing here?

Besides basketball and his family, what does Prohm do? "If you asked my wife she would probably say nothing."
