Three names to know in Prohm's search for assistant coach
- Thread starter ChrisMWilliams
- Start date
It seems a moot point now that we are hiring Kane and not Green.
Hypothetically though, I would have given Green the highest odds to take over the PG position once Wigginton and Weiler-Babb leave Ames.
Green has a higher ranking than Haliburton and would have had just as long of a stretch in the program. Nixon scored a lot in Ft. Collins, but he was not very efficient about it and playing against MVC competition. On a roster with Haliburton and Green around, I would imagine he would be more of a rotational guard than the man at PG.
Looks like the Green family is staying in Cedar Falls now, though.
Good luck to him there. Seems like a good kid. He'll do well.
I hope things work out to where we can keep playing UNI somehow.
Agreed. Good timing with the contact recruiting period opening today. Good recruiter can hit the road right away.

Probably should’ve hired Kyle as it means AJ would be a cyclone right now
Not sure I'd call Green a shooter. Those 7 3's raised his average up to 35%. Kid is a bucket getter though and would really help out this team
Proud of the posters working overtime to think of every possible way to jab Prohm.
Why are you convinced he’s a good coach?
You’ve done nothing but attack those who don’t think he’s the right guy for the job, so I’m waiting to hear your opinion on why you think he is the right guy for the job.
He got off to a tough start this season shooting-wise, but he's really turned it on lately (knock on wood). Hopefully Brown and Berhow do the same soon.
he’s better than anyone ISU took in the 2019 HS class. Not sure where he would’ve fit on the 2018-19 team but lord knows he’d be helping right now.
I don’t think “attacked” is the right description at all reading that post.
I actually like Kane. Blackwell coming here would be huge but yeah in hindsight Green would help immensely
lol "attack". I'm not happy with where things are at, but Prohm did prove he could rebuild the roster and get us back in the tournament. Constantly running him down isn't going to accomplish anything. He's not going anywhere after this season and probably not after next season either.
And see, I’ve never said anything bad about his recruiting. He’s landed some home run players and some complete duds - no different than our previous coaching staffs. But the issue is that this is a tournament caliber team but it seriously lacks the coaching. Specifically lacks a creative offensive system, in-game adjustments, in-game personnel management, and has constantly struggled at end-game management since he took over. This was easily a 10-12 loss team, on paper, coming into the season, but it’s the coaching that has seriously held this team back, and I’ve been following the signs of this since his second year in charge.
