Zion or Conditt 2020There is always a stiff competition to fill the "dog house" role.
This is why Prohm must go........

i have about 17 different prohm criticisms, but I think it all really boils down to one thing: we're soft.
soft at D, soft at rebounding, soft with screens, soft with cuts, etc.
dubar, and blackwell, and foster might be stud athletes with size, but when you can't defend or rebound, it just doesn't matter. you're not going to win, no matter who you play.

Right, I don't think it's a matter of parquet people and donors bailing, but it doesn't have to be for the math to change in terms of buyout. For example losing 1000 single game tix at $30 per over all home games that's $500k lost. Like I said I doubt there's a change, but lack of excitement costs real $.

Was there anything in the 2016-17 season?
I know Solo took forever to be inserted into the starting lineup although he had a broken hand that set him back. It was still very clear that someone serviceable was needed and CSP spoke in hindsight again.
But it works both ways. That would also make it easier and faster for a new coach to rebuild a roster.

To all of the mind readers on this site, stop putting words into peoples mouths/posts.
I merely posted stats from Drew's first 5 years, you can draw (jump to) your own conclusions.
There are too many on this site that immediately attack anyone that does not regurgitate what the more frequent posters on here feel. If you want to attack people go to the cave where belittling someone who disagrees with you earns you immediate praise.
I, for one, like when others offer information or opinions that I have not looked at or considered. One of the reasons I come to this site is to see/hear different things, the normal "media" all repeat the same few talking points/details as they are not nearly as engaged as the fan base.
I'm sure I will get blasted for this post as well, but I believe that says more about those degrading others than it does about me.
What was your intention with posting those stats?This is not directed at awd4cy, it is just the post that I responded to...

So in posting Drew's first five years' records, do you think that is worth bringing up and comparing to Prohm's first five?
Otherwise why would you post that since it might be the absolute worst example?
Should we compare SMU's first five seasons post-death penalty to CMC's while we're at it?
I think if we are relying on those 3 (and Young), we will be a lower Big 12 team.
Our recruiting class plus spring signings have to push the returning players for starter minutes.
IMO 3 starters on next year's team need to come from new blood.
Would you try to hire a coach away with good players that can follow him? Seems like a very slippery slope. I think the rich just get richer.
This is how cyclone football seasons used to feel.
Don't disagree but there is an exception...great offense makes up for those two.
Prohm's predecessor's (he who shall not be named) teams weren't great at defense or rebounding but they were above average offensively and that won them games they probably should've lost. Now, when they weren't on their offensive game they had some bad losses.
If this team had the offense of some of those teams they'd probably only have 3 or 4 losses. They're offense is just so bad it can't make up for their shoddy defense and rebounding.
Agree. People bashing Bolton are misguided. He's the 2nd best player on the team, and about the only guy who can create his own shot. When he gets a little older/stronger he will finish more consistently. Yes, he's had some rough games like 4-13, but he has also been really good in other games.
Besides, imagine this team WITHOUT Bolton's ability to drive the basket. Good lord, you could guard ISU with 4 guys and let your 5th guy basket hang on the other end and score 150 ppg.
16/17 he only had 5 healthy players so he wasnt able to hold anyone out.
15/16 it was Cooke
Making shots also allows you set up on defense, we're horrible in transition, it seems like teams always get wide open 3's after we miss or turn the ball over. It wouldn't make this a great defensive team but it would help.
I said before the year started Prohm was the best out of a bad list of candidates when Fred left...
I take that back. I'd rather have my choice at the time and have Underwood.

I don't know how he can come back from this. You cannot lose the games this team has lost and keep the fan base or expect him to come better. You cannot under achieve in the good years and just suck in the bad years. You cannot struggle to develop players. You cannot continue to not have answers for your teams struggles. You cannot go into Feb year in year out ******* with the lineup and playing time. You cannot have the amount of pros he has had and fall so flat in the Tourny. You cannot preach your team is going to be tough and play good D and suck at both.
I have always gave CSP the benefit of the doubt and not part of the fire CSP from day one. I always feel it is best to stand behind your coach and support him. But at some point you have to realize this isn't working.

With either him or Chris Beard we may have a NCAA title.
