You don't get either side of the salary argument, but you are clearly on Team Overpaid.
I’d hope that was clear!
Prohm is absolutely overpaid. That’s more of a negative for JP than Prohm. I wouldn’t want a 12-20 coach anymore or less if they got 500k.
Most coaches are overpaid. Assistants are underpaid though! Continuity is leverage, but what continuity are you getting?
Lol are people really complaining about how much one of the lowest paid coaches in the Big12 is making.
If you flip this, isn’t it better to be a groomsman and not the groom? Get more action that way.
What about the "we were a huge national basketball powerhouse under Fred, well we were on our way, well the program was trending in the right direction" crowd. lol
T.J. like his buddy Greg are not stupid. You don't want to be "that" guy who follows a legend. You think because he is a super nice guy married to an ISU legend that would have kept the vultures off his a** if he didn't live up to Fred? Oh, it may have bought him a little more time but no....you let guys like Wayne and Steve take the arrows. Then....you come in on your white horse and no matter what you do....it's fine. Because Wayne ruined it..or Steve ruined it. Then you coach for as many years as you like and everyone rolls out the "patience....trust.....integrity" BS like they did with Greg all the while forgetting we aren't even sniffing the tourney.....EVER! It's brilliant if you ask me.
The program was really quite good those years, especially compared to where it is now and where it was during the McDermott years.
But I’ve never heard anyone describe it as a national powerhouse - weak straw man.
Yes guys, it sure did suck to be dancing every year and be a back to back 3 seed. Being a legit top 15 program was pretty good in my book.
But hey, go ahead and crap on ISUs past successes to justify the current poor performance and your loyalty to one specific coach.

It’s almost like you don’t understand.
Loyalty to the program is exactly why some of us still hope they succeed.
you tried to pretend it wasn’t true, then people admitted that they would be mad if we won next year because it was prohm doing it.
I don’t expect a reasoned response from you. Just the ridiculous straw men you purport to hate.
Good Lord. Do you actually believe anyone that doesn’t believe Prohm is the right man for the job doesn’t want to se the ISU BB program succeed? You are really trying to equate a tiny minority of fans to the rest of the fanbase, so you can keep pushing this silly argument.
You’ve lost perspective.
Sure. That does not mean his replacement should not be evaluated based on his own performance. How is our program performing and where are we trending for the future?
