*** Official Texas Tech Vs IOWA STATE Game(Day) Thread ***

[SEIOWA CLONE]

We left the game with four minutes left and down by 29, the old couple that were sitting by us, go to every game, they left shortly after halftime.
I only got to go to two games this year, last week against Texas and yesterday verses TT, got to see our best game of the year, and one of the worst.

Hilton as usual was great, but this team is not fun to watch, no movement, there just is not a strength on the team. Give TT credit, they are well coached, and the play defense, just not talk about it like ISU. If I remember right, we interviewed their coach when we hired Prohm, wish like hell he would have gotten the job.

Our problem is basketball

You guys forgot special teams. If basketball had special teams, this team would get every one of their kicks blocked.

@Macloney @Cat Stevens please come tell us we're dumb dumbs and reassure that our concerns are unreasonable.

I haven't read any of this thread, but I will say that calling out strangers on a message board seems like the act of a normal person.

Concerns reasonable, sure.

Dumb, absolutely.

I don't know what's worse, the 30 point loss at Hilton or the fact that JP had just doubled down on Prohm with a tweet showing us just how far out of touch he is with the reality of Prohm's poor coaching. We are going to be stuck with Prohm for a long time I'm afraid.

It's even sillier that Pollard chose an example that even the most extreme Prohm critics stopped obsessing about a month ago.

I don't think we interviewed Beard, but could be wrong. We interviewed Underwood, Prohm, Bryce Drew, and TJ.

Beard's style probably wasn't 'fun' enough.

Following an elite eight run with a natty title game appearance looked like no fun at all, so ISU dodged one there.

I have been pleased that the guys keep playing hard. They just seem to be playing uphill when it comes to the basics.

Actually beard wasn’t on really anyone’s radar. That was why he went to Arkansas Little Rock.

I feel like the guy is this generations Bobby Knight, with social skills.

its a ridiculously poor fundamentals that make it so hard to watch at times.

that’s the first thing that has to change if Steve Prohm is going to stay at Iowa State past next year.

 

[Cat Stevens]

He was the head coach at Angelo State before he was hired at Little Rock.

he wasn’t on anyone’s radar. Goodness

There were things going on last night defensively that are maybe acceptable in December.

I assume Jamie had to block many people on twitter yesterday for disagreeing with or criticizing his comment.

how long ago did he block you?

 

[tim_redd]

It's even sillier that Pollard chose an example that even the most extreme Prohm critics stopped obsessing about a month ago.

And the fact that Prohm had told his players to foul, they just didn't do it.

 

[06_CY]

how long ago did he block you?

During the Paul era, but not blocked anymore, obviously.

Don’t give up. You can still do it.

I got blocked a few years back when I retweeted someone saying that if Pollard wanted him to buy football season tickets (for 2015) that Fred Hoiberg would have to come to the door and hand deliver the tickets. Yeah, I retweeted that and got blocked.

Still blocked...

 

[06_CY]

Not sure I follow. I didn't offer my opinion on his comment at all, just posted what he said since someone asked about it. He has a track record for blocking people who criticize/disagree with him. Again, that's his perspective. Reading the comments on his post yesterday, I would assume based on what he has done in the past, he had some blocking to do.

 

[allday4cy]

For anyone at the game, how full was Hilton?

 

[Jacktronic]

I'm gonna go to whatever first round B12 tourney game they play since I try to make it every year, but damn it's gonna be painful.
