Nice try. This is my only account and probably one too many. Your reply showed up in my junk email which is fitting.
Will Prohm ever win a championship?

I think Big12 coaches would have our program rated second behind Kansas. Most of the other Big12 arenas are half empty.
When did Cyclone fans become so entitled?[/QUOTE]
It probably occurred after we went to the NCAA tournament six years in a row, won three conference tournament titles, spent nearly 3 of those six years in the Top 25 and had the AD tell everyone 3 years into Fred’s tenure that they had to donate twice as much each year to keep their seats no matter whether they were in the parquet or the center balcony sections. That was when the bar got raised.

It’s a good job. Lute Olson called it a top 35 job. I think it’s in that range. Hilton is a known commodity, and considered a top arena.
But like everything else in the college landscape, football is the economic driver
This may just sum up the starting points between the two camps. If you view ISU as clearly behind KU but no others then you are probably a little concerned about the current state. If you view us as the 6th or 7th best program in the league then we are meeting or exceeding this position and things are more or less okay.
I would say West Virginia and Oklahoma would have a slight quibble with that.
IF and that is a big IF a change was ever made just look at JP Twitter - he tweets as much about TJ and SDSU as he does Prohm and ISU BB.
Some people talking about a coaching change in the middle of a season where we'll be going dancing. Cool cool
Exactly how do you determine if the improvement this year, compared to last year, was due to recruiting and not coaching. I would really like to hear that explained. SP of course has more talent, for sure. But that certainly doesn't mean he didn't have to do some coaching as well. Knowing that we had all these players, at the start of the season, many picked us to finish in the bottom third of the league. In fact, Hero Sports had us a very distant dead last in the B12.
There wouldn't be a search. There wouldn't a list. Jamie would offer TJ and TJ would accept.
At least they aren’t being ******* about it any more I guess.
But look how giddy a couple of these folks are to talk about getting rid of Prohm.
Pretty clear about how serious they were about “discussing his flaws” huh? Goes to show it’s not about basketball with them, because what he’s done here is every bit what has been done here before (other than the two good years Larry, ok jamaal, had).
This is insane. You are actually seriously talking about a coaching change. First, check out SPs record before you do that. It's actually quite impressive. Second, the programs with the greatest success - other than us for the past 7 years - have long term consistency in coaching. You don't change coaches that easily.
Hmmm a “new” member talking about firing a coach whose success has been in line with what has been considered successful in the modern history of this place.
I think it’s funny Kansas guy is a voice of reason here
