Anyone else hearing that JP has already decided Prohm is coming back?

If I were JP, my mind would be made on a change and I would be working very hard, and quietly, to have the replacement lined up before the announcement. With the transfer issues going on and really good recruits to save, it is critical to have a replacement quickly.

I can only imagine the recruiting going on right now with the WI point guard who has signed.

I think JP is smart enough to know it needs to be done with great speed.

False rumor. I would love Altman, but guys it just isn't happening he isn't looking to leave for Ames, Duke, North Carolina or "insert school here"

I mean it's possible he isn't really interested in leaving but still is playing the game of floating his name out there to make sure his pay keeps rising.

If someone would have said Altman 20 years ago he’d have been run off the board. Altman is old and not coming here.

If Altman brings his current staff from Oregon the next 8 years (until he retires) would be the best 8 year run in the history of the program. He would win more games then Fred. Anyone that says you can’t survive on the transfer market right now go ahead and look at Oregon’s roster this year. Altman is a Hall of Fame coach. If he wants 3.5 million a year for the next 8 years you do it and now the program will be in great shape in 2029 when he steps down.

Testifying
Altman's people reached out to us within the last two weeks to say he would be interested. Yes I think it's just for more money from Oregon but that smoke is legit
Whether or not people would ever believe this, he bounced on Arky to stay closer to home.
I've always thought of Altman as a Lon Kruger lite. If you can ever get a Lon Kruger lite you go for it.

That is one of the most wishy washy, back and forth, written from the devils advocate perspective article I’ve ever read lol.

"I won't say which way of thinking is right or wrong, but one would guess Pollard will land on one side of this fence by the time he makes a public announcement."

You mean, Pollard will make a decision?

I'd say CSP had a very 'fair shot' after the extension following what was all in all a weird season in 18-19.

Lol he got an extension for winning the conference tournament and proceeded to go 14-42 in back-to-back years, only beating 6 total P-5 teams and not winning a single game on the road.

I’d say he’s had a pretty fair shot.
