I don't think knowing someone since elementary school qualifies me as a "jersey chaser," but if you think that, then that's your opinion. I would also like to point out that I'm not one of the idiots wanting Manning fired or questioning Campbell as our head coach. That's worse than the idiots who questioned Fred Hoiberg as a coach during his time here.


There were a lot of these same folks that thought fred wasn’t all that on the sidelines.

that was before he was exposed in Chicago.

and you have alluded to being “friends” with guys on the team last year, when you were talking about how ethically questionable Steve prohm is as a human being.

You're deluded if you think that Fred failed at Chicago. The front office there is literally a dumpster fire. Keep in mind he took them to the playoffs his first season before GarPax traded away anyone worth a damn.

Also, I've never I've never questioned Steve as a human being from an ethical standpoint, so I'm not sure where you're getting that from.

So you’re saying he was so desperate to get out of Ames that he willingly went into a situation he knew was doomed to failure? Doesn’t seem to speak well of his character and the statements he made about Iowa State, then does it?

what about the other jobs he chased before?

And you’re also saying that being rated as the worst coach in the nba didn’t happen?

11-15 is also a failure after winning the Big 12 tournament and being a 6 seed in the NCAA tournament.

Right.....because 11 months after 23 wins, a tourney crown and NCAA invite..........f you Prohm. Are you sure that fall didn't knock something loose?

Phil Jackson could've been the coach of that Bulls team and you'd see similar results. That roster was (and still is) a steaming pile of garbage that no coach could win with.

I'm having a hard time understanding this weak straw man. Are you seriously arguing our program is in a good place? Excusing this train wreck of a season away because of a 3 game span last season? Will you still be posting this weak comeback when next year is a repeat of this season?

West Virginia sucked last year after being good the year before. (Won 15 games vs 26) That’s what sometimes happens to non-blue blood schools. Look at Kansas State this year. Win the conference and now they are worse than we are!!

No I don't think he is. Do you?

you apparently do. He said Iowa State was his dream job, yet he wanted to leave so bad that he took a job that had no chance to succeed.

so you are blatantly saying he was lying. That isn’t something people with good character do.

so you have to be saying he is a bad guy.

bold. Very bold.
