I think you’re confusing trying to stop Fred from coaching Nebraska with viewing him as less of a Cyclone as a Husker. The former isn’t happening. The latter certainly should be.you people are freaks. let the man live his life. it
The day that ISU is losing recruits to the joke that is nebraska basketball is when Iowa State needs to do some soul-searching on even having a program.
We are on another level than those turds.
placeholder. He will get what he needs to rehab his coaching swag and move on. Not terribly dissimilar to his time at Isu. However; he has made recruiting more challenging for himself. After having read thru his 2o15 interview about Nebraska he was clearly planning a soft landing back then. He is very methodical in his plans. I look at his game day visit with a more jadauced perspective now.Besides a big paycheck I’m not sure why he wouldn’t wait until the end of the NBA season to see what was available. So did he get his fill of the NBA or will Nebraska be a place holder till another good NBA job comes up.
I guess I don’t get it. CFH has done a ton for Iowa State and we have a coach that just won his second conference tournament championship in 4 years. Nebraska will certainly raise their profile with Fred but the Iowa State program isn’t going to fall apart because CFH moves to Lincoln.
word on the streets is his nba coaching prospects werent as high as youd think.
not a lot of interest. so go to nebraska make bank. 4 years at 5 mill/ year.
make them win and head back to nba
Add a Foster or Lipsey commitment to Nebraska, and that could be enough to have any Cyclone MBB head coach looking elsewhere.The program in and of itself will not fall apart. But don't kid yourself.....in the event that Prohm slips, even if for just a few weeks like this year...that's red meat for the lunatic base of Cyclonenation. Look what happened this season when things seemed to be going south.....and Fred wasn't even coaching. Now he might be right next door. No.....ISU mens basketball will be survive without Fred. But I would sure hate to be the coach at ISU if somehow a Fred led NU ends up with more wins at the end of a season.

The Nba season doesn’t end until like June or July. There would be no college positions available by then.
How is this thread still going?
Honest question, because I don't know.
How often has there been an instance where a successful college coach bailed to an NBA job that returned to the college ranks at a dumpy job like Nebraska?
Pitino and Calipari did poorly in the NBA but locked down blue-chip jobs. Larry Brown is the only one I can think of, but he got his program in trouble and resigned after a couple years.
For most of the teams making changes the NBA season ends in mid-April.The Nba season doesn’t end until like June or July. There would be no college positions available by then.
