    *** Official Oklahoma State Vs IOWA STATE Game(Day) Thread ***

    There’s a difference between saying someone looked good and that they are good, right? And you’re undervaluing hustle and effort. Combine that with his athleticism and his display of innate basketball knowledge, and he’s shown he has many of the things you can’t teach. Needs to improve his...

    *** Official Oklahoma State Vs IOWA STATE Game(Day) Thread ***

    If you love his hustle and effort, it would seem that he HAS shown you a single thing. Assuming you also like his athleticism, it’s a good base for a freshman. He’s exhibited a few attributes that looked good for a freshman imo. I suspect he’ll quickly improve to being good.

    All four are great prospects regardless of rankings, but always good to see them move up.

    *** Official Oklahoma State Vs IOWA STATE Game(Day) Thread ***

    Is there really any doubt Azubuike wouldn’t be nearly the player here? Gunner would just be rambling about how he’s a limited big man out of place in today’s game.

    As mediocre as things seem to look under Prohm, Ok St has to feel worse. They returned nearly everything you need to compete for a tournament berth.

    This is why Prohm must go........

    Regardless, if sub-33% 3P becomes the norm, the modern offense will become antiquated. To your question, should that be the goal? I’m agnostic.

    This is why Prohm must go........

    The “modern” offense in basketball wouldn’t be a thing if our 3P shooting was the norm. Henceforth, we shouldn’t be try to be that. If they keep moving the line back and/or percentages begin to decrease too far below 33%, there will be some reversion to previous styles of play.

    *** Official IOWA STATE vs #23 Texas Tech Game(Day) Thread ***

    Is it 10 million? It’s 50% of what’s left on his contract, which goes until June 2025, so it should be significantly less than $10 million already. JP is big on improving ISU’s brand, and maintaining ISU MBB is pertinent to that. Assuming he didn’t foolishly agree to that buyout being a lump...

    This is why Prohm must go........

    You’d be surprised how much better many of these players would be from better coaching and adding just two quality newcomers.

    I’m confident it works really well against our defense in practice. The 3P shooting is horrendous, but the offense isn’t even our worst attribute.

    This is why Prohm must go........

    So, like two players? Get the right coach, and a rebuild is nothing in college basketball. Rosters change quickly, which is one issue Prohm has. You’ve got to be able to fill holes in the spring.

    OU's next transfer QB?

    That is not inherent to having extreme success with transfer QBs. There is no argument to be made that OU’s QB strategy has been anything but optimal.

    Where does this team find shooting NEXT year even?

    For those that overvalued Wigginton, yes. You’re one of those nut jobs, I know.

    Where does this team find shooting NEXT year even?

    How many 4th year guys did we have in 2011-12 or 2012-13? Adding Wigginton would just make this a lot like 17-18 imo. To have consistent success in CBB, like Hoiberg did, you need to have good spring recruiting. It had never been easier to do that at ISU, but Prohm was still bad at it in enough...

    Where does this team find shooting NEXT year even?

    On defense? No. On offense I’m guessing they’d be as inefficient as always. They’re no TH. Jesus, did you see LW and Lard last year? Improvement in fundamentals and team concepts was minimal. I give Prohm credit for adjusting their PT accordingly. The “losing guys early narrative” is...

    Where does this team find shooting NEXT year even?

    We made the tournament 6 straight seasons in large part of reloading. It’s not ISU MBB as much as it is Prohm. Prohm isn’t good enough at building a roster that he can work with and is poor in spring recruiting. Too many missteps. A 2 for 1 like Nixon isn’t good enough. He didn’t recruit...

    Where does this team find shooting NEXT year even?

    On that note, given we finished 9-9 last year, the narrative on the early departures is overblown. Prohm needs a high talent buffer, and given what we last saw out of those three, this year was going to be a challenge regardless. He couldn’t manage two of those three.

    It's Possible......

    Wrong. There were many fans that had doubts. Of course the normal herd of idiots here attempted to drown them out, but to say nobody complained is false.
