So much potential. It’s an ashamed he is struggling to see the big picture and the opportunity he has that will shape his future.
I hope he figures it out either as an ISU player or not.

It depends on what he did. I personally don't think being late to practice for example is "trouble", more not being responsible.

Responsible to? Himself, the team, the coach, his family, the program, his academics... After a while you have to roll with those that CAN toe the line consistently. CMC and CSP have stressed details and winning in the margins and at the end of the day, those are the things that make you successful.

And its also his job to maintain a program, keep his athletes accountable, and help them grow as human beings.

Blaming Prohm for Cameron’s history of actions while he’s tried a number of different things to help him grow as a human being is certainly one of the most laughable things I’ve seen on the board this week

I agree. Seems like Jameel appreciates what coach Prohm did for him.

Strictly from a basketball standpoint Conditt has a higher ceiling than Lard. He's taller, he's faster, and he's quicker off the floor. He's 20# and a year's experience from being a major contributor. Not to mention he seems to have a connection with Foster.

That said I like Cam, when inspired his enthusiasm lifts the team. Hope for the best but feel ISU can handle the worse.

"he's quicker off the floor" "faster" ..... Seriously? I have no idea but I never would have guessed that. Cam seems more athletic to me so what am I missing here?

Well fast is open to interpretation but Conditt passes people when he runs the floor more than anyone else, maybe it's just hustle.

However quicker off the floor can be seen how they jump and the shots they block. Cam blocks shots when he's off the ball and uses deep knee bend. George tends to get his on ball using smaller muscles below the knee allowing quicker recovery.

I agree. I'm just saying that if he's gone I'm OK with it. I don't even need an explanation. I've raised 2 kids so I'm on team hard-ass.

Eh. I’m fine with it he is kicked off. Up to Prohm. But I’ll never get turned on by the thought of a coach being a hardass like a lot of fans do. Guess I’ve just never had a Authoritarian streak in me.

Prohm may be accused of a lot of things......but being a hard ass isn't one of them. Especially when it comes to Cam Lard.
