Fire all the coaches v 4.0
- Thread starter Rabbuk
- Start date
The difference being the program was in a different spot when we hired Prohm. That was the time to make the major hire of Altman. When you have been in the Big 12 gutter 2 of the last three years and presumably 3/4 for the sake of the conversation then you go mid-major.
The energy used to discuss a coach that will have until at least this time next year before our AD makes a decision on his fate, could likely develop a Corona-Virus vaccine.
He has had a lot of success at South Dakota and Utah State. But I don’t think he with be at Utah State next year. So the time is now and JP isn’t there yet.
We get it. You hate Fred. He was vastly underpaid in the market and JP kept looking for the local discount and then have the Athletic Dept marketing people promote the top end number of the contract. Those stunts got old.

Nebraska, a historical nobody of college basketball is paying Fred more in his first year than we are paying for year 5 of prohm.

Fred's the best we've had. Too bad people are doing the jilted, bitter Iowan thing.
Maybe even worse to see anyone clinging to a 20 loss coach here.
I cringe to think how Campbell will get perceived if he leaves us. I’m sure people will try to claim he wasn’t that great.
I could just see you talking to your grandkids in 20 years, as you’re drooling all of yourself, telling them about the Hoiberg glory years.
Go back to putting pins in the voodoo doll. I’m sure you love the fact the program is flailing.
Imagine thinking the truth is hating. Calling a coach a worthless ****, or telling them to gtfo is ok, but acknowledging Fred and carol desperately wanting out of Ames, starting two years after coming home to take his dream job, means you hate him.
I know that you think your purpose in life is to defend all things fred Hoiberg. Any dollar required to keep him as coach was available.
I’m sorry he wanted to leave you so bad he tried for years before it happened.
No one is happier that the program is failing as you. You hated Prohm from day one. You will hate any other future coach not named Fred. All you do is talk about the past and constantly talk about your obsession, Hoiberg.
Fred is not coming back, get over it. We will move on from CSP after next year, get a grip.
If every dollar was available after Year 2 and 3 then why did JP tell the people on the summer circuit that the cost of the head coach would mean increases for the ticket holder. Why was he underpaid and year 2, 3 and 4. I understand the proposal that was on the table at the end of Year 5 but the chain was being pulled for 3 years.
I also think it’s fair to acknowledge that Fred was actively looking for other job opportunities in response to JP’s screwing around and the fact that Carol and him didn’t like the fishbowl.
