You can also direct message them. Direct messages can't be searched. If you think someone like our resident Kansas State/Iowa fan (jerse) is not direct message players and coaches on twitter, I have some ocean front property in Iowa to sell you.
You can. I agree with you, probably best to stay off social media during the season unless you're like Georges Niang tier at it. Otherwise nothing good come from it.
I guess not anymore. Back when I played we got called alot worse than this everytime we screwed something up and I guarantee we wouldnt have heard the last of it if we didnt do what the coach instructed with the game on the line.
We would also realize at the end of the game when we personally made a boneheaded play and would use that as motivation to not let it happen again.
Sounds like you are Facebook friends with some real dramatic ********.
Can you link your stat line?
I dont have a Twitter account and never will so its best to leave this one alone unless you have proof.
But what's the point of that? Do you think Pollard is going to read your comment, and then consider that a possibility?
For one thing, it doesn't make much sense. Do you honestly think Prohm is going to stay on if Hoiberg comes back? It's pretty crazy to think Hoiberg comes back, but it's way out there to say Prohm should stay on.
Who's going to believe a guy that says he's not going to post negatively about this staff, and then literally blows that up within what, weeks?
I kinda think adults need to act like, I dunno - ADULTS.
Any idiot that lives vicariously thru 18-10 year old college kids has a small, shallow life.
Any idiots that tweet garbage at our coaches and players are cowards.
I’m not a twitter expert but I looked up the players and couldn’t find anything nasty tweeted at them. Maybe I’m wrong but I couldn’t find it.
But if you think the worst loss for isu in a long time followed up by a loss against tcu wouldn’t prompt tweets ABOUT prohm and the team then grow up.

Just STOP people! It's really that simple.
It's not just Twitter or FB or whatever. It's also what we post & say on here. You really think these players don't look at CF or other sites?
The ISU fan base is starting to resemble Iowa's. As long as things are going well, great. Once there are some setbacks though, then all the "in their mind only experts" come out and attack the coaches, players, teams, AD etc., that they claim to support as "true" fans. What a crock of ****!
I would be willing to bet that over 99% of ISU fans commenting have never been a P5 or P6 coach or played P5 or P6 sports at any time in their lives, yet they think they know what should be done with players, coaches, in-game strategy....whatever. Just take a moment and think how asinine that is. In your job, how would you react to criticism of how you were doing it from someone who had never been close to doing the same job?
We want these players to listen to the coaches, respect the coaches, and execute what the coaches want. Then players see comments from "fans" about how bad the coach is, he can't make adjustments, so and so should be playing more or less, yadda-yadda b.s.
Don't ever tweet at players, coaches, or recruits unless it is something positive or supportive. That should not be too hard for any true fan to do. If you can't do that, then don't tweet at all. Be supportive. It's that simple.
Once last thing I want to say...the criticism of CSP and how he is doing is un-warrented. Don't be stupid. Just look at the players this program has lost over the last couple of years, let alone those they have lost since CSP got here. Where are most of those players now? In the NBA, G league or overseas making decent coin. Unless the program is a blue blood (or maybe Gonzaga or Texas Tech) it can't just always reload. Plus recruiting is a crapshoot. Do you think Prohm saw Lindell or THT leaving after a year or two when he signed them? Imagine if they were still on this team how much different it would be. But that is just what every program has to deal with in today's world. Prohm has shown he can recruit. He just has to be able to hang on to them for 3 or 4 years to develop them & the program. Maybe he needs to figure out what kept Ejim, Monte, Niang, Naz and others here 4 years, and what made Clyburn, Nader, McKay, Burton, BDJ and others want to transfer here in the first place.
These players and coaches need our support, not our criticism. There is talent there....support ifT and stop bring such idiots. Put yourself in the place of the coaches and players. What do you need from fans? Think before you mouth off and put in "your two cents" (which is actually more than your opinion is worth). THINK BEFORE POST!

Nobody cares that you do because you are not of importance to anyone that would read it.
Again, people can be directly messaged. And, if you aren't an expert, then I'm not sure why you think you could find it.
If you think that fans tweeting at and/or messaging players and coaches solves anything then YOU need to grow up.
