This team has looked soft and mentally weak most of the season. It isn't changing at this point. It is who they are.
Not how I thought it would go down, but not surprised we lost. Hope we can get Babb back healthy, figure out what the hell is going on with Lard, and win the last 2 going into the Big 12 Tournament. I'm not quite to the same level as the "Fire Prohm" crowd, but the fact that no adjustments were made at halftime in a game we were getting slaughtered in (again) is concerning for the pro-Prohm crowd. Does he really just lack the skills to play chess or is he stubborn? Is it a personnel issue? I have no clue. Certainly couldn't have predicted Babb going down, but we were already down 15 when he got hurt, so not really an excuse. Hope he figures it out, cuz he is a likable guy. Rhoads was also a likable guy.
You are not an ISU fan. You are a Fred fan, first and foremost. Do not insult my intelligence by trying to tell me otherwise.
Too true. Fire prohm. Like jerse said, leave his ass in Austin.
I'm not saying it's a totally limited roster.
I just don't think it's the level of talent that some think it is.
Who's a lock-down defender? Who's a sharpshooter? Who can ISU feed the ball to on a block when they need a bucket?
A lot of that is us leaving them wide open though. Yeah they shot it well but we didn't exactly make it tough on them.
Yep. Been watching wide open corner threes while we double down the post for the last month. Game after game.
Bull****, I've been a fan of this program since the mid 80's. Dont you dare try to tell me Im not a fan because Im sick and tired of watching this coach underachieve.
It had better just be three now.
That team looked down in warmups. Knew something was wrong. Looked and didn’t see lard, and was like oh boy what happened now. Looked here to see he did it again.
They definitely did. There were people upset Rhoads was fired when he was. It was a year overdue to most everyone else.
See, that's the difference.
Criticizing for questionable coaching or play, but then berating a bunch of college kids brings it to another level.
I get the 4 guard lineup is Prohm's philosophy but damn I wish he'd try a 2 big line up occasionally.
This was effort today. The guys gave none, except for Conditt. The other freshmen were bad with it too.
Yep and if next year is similar or something concerns are warranted. Said it before but it sucks because CSP does a lot of other great things.
You get out!!!! This coach refuses to motivate these players and we've seen it every year. There is no other explanation on why they run Kansas, K-State, and Tech out of the gym, but get blown out by TCU and Texas.
I got an idea, make the other team wear Kansas jerseys all season and this team would never lose a game. They refuse to even care about games like this.
You can be an Iowa state fan and not like prohm.. I’m kind of indifferent.. he brought in great talent but is the worst coach in the big 12 yes and that counts the interims... but it evens out... it could always be worse we could have prohm and actually need him to develop talent... but that’s not for a couple years.
