Can't speak for trev.......but because I don't think last year doesn't count....there is precedent we could win 20-23 games the year after a bad one. Just as likely as not.What has you hopeful for next year?

Yet some are perfectly happy with that. Really weird.And most likely 17-38 in a few weeks.
So how are we going to get to 20-23? Tre and Grill going to massively improve? Blackwell and Foster going to play out of their minds as Freshman? Bolton and Conditt gonna be all Big 12? 20-23 wins would be a massive jump, I’m just trying to understand how it’s going to happen from your perspective.Can't speak for trev.......but because I don't think last year doesn't count....there is precedent we could win 20-23 games the year after a bad one.

So the answer is yes to half empties like you......last year doesn't count.
How does a bad recruiter keep putting kids in the NBA?Teams composed of Steve Prohm recruits are 42-36 and will have a below .500 record after this season. We hear what a great recruiter he is, yet, a 3 year sample of below .500 basketball would contradict that notion. If he is a such a great recruiter, why are the 2/3 teams he's built not able to finish .500?
How does a bad recruiter keep putting kids in the NBA?
Steve so far has recruited two types of players, guys who never turn into Big 12 players, and guys who leave for the NBA in short order. The biggest problem is not having anyone between those extremes.
Because before each of those years, a mass amount of talent left all at one time and we weren't capable of replacing it all in one class. We aren't Duke, we can't just reload on classes full of top-50 freshmen every year.So he talented kids? If he can bring in talent, why have his teams finished below .500 2/3 years?
At the beginning of last season.....Solo goes down for the year, Wiggs gets injured, Talley gets in the dog house and Lard......well. If you want I can go back and grab all the many posts saying the season was done before it began. You know why....because no one knew TH was going to be that good, THT was going to be good enough to be a one and doner, that Shayok because of the system at UV could be "that" guy when it came to scoring, or that Jacobsen with all his flaws would fit right in. Yet they won 23 games. That is how I think it could happen again.So how are we going to get to 20-23? Tre and Grill going to massively improve?

Greg McDermott put guys in the NBA. Was he a great recruiter? I guess that’s up to you to decide.How does a bad recruiter keep putting kids in the NBA?

Who said last season was done when Solo went down? I don’t recall that at all.At the beginning of last season.....Solo goes down for the year, Wiggs gets injured, Talley gets in the dog house and Lard......well.

Nothing really. That wouldn't change with a new coach though. I'm in the "wait and see" mode for next year. If we are as bad as this year, I'd be ready for a coaching change. If we make the tournament, it's a no brainer to keep Prohm. If we are close, but still miss the tournament I'd probably lean towards making a change, but I'd want to see what the team looks like going forward. Were the freshman good, are Jackson, Grill, Conditt and Bolton improving? I always think its better to keep a coach for a season too long than get rid of him a season too early. I think one of the reasons Campbell came here, and is staying, is the patience we had with Rhodes. Coaches no longer want to take jobs where they might be fired at the first sign of distress.What has you hopeful for next year?

Read on........that AND in addition to.Who said last season was done when Solo went down? I don’t recall that at all.
I’d like to know why last year was considered such a god damned failure. I can sort of understand it being a bit disappointing but it was NOTHING like a failure.
How can you recruit any better than bringing in NBA players? That is the ceiling.Greg McDermott put guys in the NBA. Was he a great recruiter? I guess that’s up to you to decide.
