Prohm needs coaching help

He certainly hasn't been clutch the last two games. Look at his line: 2 of 9 from the field, 1 of 4 free-throws, and a couple of turnovers thrown in. And, I think he isn't good for the chemistry. As to the topic of the thread, Prohm has good players but the results aren't there. It's coaching, lineups, and substitutions.
I don’t know alt this is, but this is a really bad take. But by all means, with your acumen, you should write Jamie a letter telling him he needs to hire you and some of the other zen masters to coach this team. He will know he will need to clear room for all the banners you guys will bring. Jesus.
Seriously though,
Lindell is the most talented player on the team. He’s also the most competitive guy on the team. He’s played less than half the games so far. He’s trying to recover from an injury that prevented him from conditioning.
This hasn’t been, and still isn’t, the team that we thought Iowa state was going to have this year. It would make sense to actually let the guys who are active play together for a month before declaring the season over. But that wouldn’t fit the agenda some of you have here.
the games now matter as much as the games later on do. It's unfortunate, but the reality is ISU needs to win games now that conference season is here and they don't have much time to figure things out.
I'm not in the "season's over" camp, but being in the camp "everything's fine, things will work out" isn't the right approach either. These games all add up, and seeding/getting into the NCAA is being changed better/worse after every game.
I’m not minimizing the losses. It was a bad week. But there’s a whole lot of context people seem to ignore in their efforts to panic.
It absolutely would have been nice to have Conditt to protect the rim on that last play, but it's pretty clear what he was thinking- this is a freshman, with just over 100 minutes of college basketball under his belt, in his first Big 12 action. Hindsight is 20/20, and all we know is that it couldn't have turned out worse (but that doesn't mean it would have turned out better).
This is a good post. But the thing people seem to always forget is that, unless you’re a blue blood with your pick of talent, teams have to learn how to win games again every year.
I really dislike KState. Have since Lon Kruger’s performance in Hilton in 88. But healthy they went to the elite 8 last year and were picked top 15 preseason. They’re experienced and tough when they have their full compliment of players. We never win at Baylor, even with the best teams Fred had. It’s a fact of life.
With adding guys back in, we are still a work in progress. These were tough losses, ones that this team will regret at the end of the year. But there are 14 regular season games left, and the big 12 tournament. Let’s see where we are in 15 games.
You know it. Jamie is reviewing resumes as we speak to replace him with a cf poster.
Only if he is listening to us
Obviously just kidding. I still think CSP is a good coach and a good person. I do not think he made the best decisions in the last two games , and felt that way in real time, not after the fact. However, that is just a fans opinion, and he knows a jillion times more about basketball and this team than I do. As others have said, we could have gone 2-0 this week with just one different possession in each game. Problem is, close don’t count.
He has somehow got to get the guys to improve their defensive rebounding. It is a huge weakness and the Big 12 has a lot of good rebounding teams.
It's like we are missing out most impact-ful big man on the defensive end of the floor ...
You don't need one man to rebound. And even the games he has been in they have been killed on the offensive glass. So try again.
I saw a tweet that Coach Prohm was waving the guys over and intending to call a time out, but we inbounded the ball before he could do so.
re-watched the game. I really wish they would have tried a 2-3 zone in the 2nd half to stop the penetration. If they hit a 25 footer, fine - but too many shots inside the paint. Put Condit in the middle and have Babb and and TH keep Brown from getting into the paint.
With the length of this team, Babb, TH, THT, CG - this team could be a solid zone team - mix it up to throw a team like KSU (who struggles offensively) off.

Their first shot defense was pretty good. They gave up too many offensive rebounds and couldn't score.
I think that Prohm coaches like its an AAU team where wins and losses dont matter. When the game starts Prohm becomes a spectator. His alphabet has only 24 letters in it (no X or O)
