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.


There is some irony to this statement.

You can’t lose perspective if you never had it.

WTF am I in support of? But whining like a little ***** changes nothing.

Calling our fan base vulgar names for being frustrated for the complete collapse of our basketball program changes things?

I think by calling them names and supporting Prohm actually changes even less...

Reminds me of the people who quoted “honor before victory” when Rhoads lost to UNI. People should complain, they should complain even louder than they are.

Then start a Mega thread so you can find the dark side of ever bit of news. Most of us just want to get updates.

He's the 9th highest paid coach in the Big 12. If you are going to base expectations on his salary, it suggests he's overachieving.

So if we pay him $3.5 million next year we would fire him but because it was 2.5 million we are getting what we paid for.

Pay me a 1/5th of that and I'm not so sure the results would be too much different.

I don’t get the salary argument from either side.

Would it change anyone’s minds on keeping Prohm if his contract stipulated he got $0 for losing 20 games? Great, so we saved money! On a similar thought, would we do much worse with a HC getting $500k?

100%. I don't care what he gets paid. Everybody everywhere is trying to maximize their salary. Results are all I care about.

Insufferable fans in the middle of a global pandemic.

Obviously the ISU job is on par with UNC or ku, we deserve the best. Don't let facts or the history of the program tell you otherwise.

Keep thumpin' that straw man.

I see a few of you have learned a new term recently that you all using now. Cool.

Keep sitting at home and crying about Steve Prohm, dude.

Whatever gets you through it.

Well aware of the term, you're the one that could use a refresher.

I'm not crying about anything.
