Can we stop with this Prohm doesn’t play two bigs at the same time?
Can we stop with this Prohm doesn’t play two bigs at the same time? He has in the past for Iowa State. It wasn’t until Monte’s senior year where we saw the switch to a four guard lineup. I think most of the issues come from a lack of quality big men and bigs that can spread the floor.
I believe we will see 2 bigs in the lineup at times next year. That is of course if MJ can improve his outside shot and Young can drain threes too (wasn’t he 1/1 from three this year). It blows to lose Lard, but I believe GC can step up and be serviceable in his role. Plus that guy loves being a Cyclone.

Even in Monte's senior year, he played with two bigs at least a little bit. I think I specifically remember Bowie throwing a lob to Young for a dunk in the Big 12 tournament.
What is the consensus on Zion Griffin? Obviously a lot of guys were in front of him...alot. Any possibility he could develop into a scorer giving us some minutes? Although it didn't come to that for Talley his last year. Realize some of you said his shot is flat, but other than that I don't remember a lot about his game.
I believe Eric Steyer got into a game late this season in which Zion never did get put in. He was playing about the least minutes of anyone near the end of the year. Maybe he wasn't healthy, I don't know, but he wasn't getting any meaningful time at all.
I have serious doubts if he'll ever help us here at ISU. Hope I'm dead wrong, but there have been other rumblings on this site about how he may never be what anyone thought he would be.
This is easy to verify and is wrong.

I just remember a game late this season when Prohm was emptying the bench, and he didn't put Zion in. People talked about it on this site. It was strange. I'm not positive if Steyer got in that game or not?
But maybe Zion wasn't healthy or in the doghouse? Who knows?
I just think he has a ways to go, that's all.
We could see a bigger lineup next year. Playing Jacobson/Young at the 4 and Conditt at the 5. Zion at the 4 when we want to go smaller.
Conditt
MJ/Solo
Lewis/Zion
Prentiss (spell?)
TH/Young
I think it would almost necessity, I dont think we have the fire power to play 3 ball next year.
