Anyone else hearing that JP has already decided Prohm is coming back?

  • After Iowa State won the Big 12, a Cyclone made a wonderful offer to We Will that now increases our match. Now all gifts up to $400,000 between now and the Final 4 will be matched. Please consider giving at We Will Collective.

The tale of the tape on Steve Prohm:
--Back to back 20 loss seasons
--25 straight road losses (last road win was over 2 years ago
--18-53 record in the B12 the last four years
--Owner of two of the worst three losses in Hilton Coliseum history
--First power conference coach to lose to Florida A&M
It's time. He's got to go. Worst coach in Iowa State history.

why post this. NO ONE IS SAYING HE SHOULD STAY. NO ONE.

Or they are completely full of **** and know nothing.

No way to know...unless you have a history of being right.
Like I said, I'm not saying anyone is right or wrong on this. I personally haven't heard from my people one way or the other. But even if someone does know, they aren't going to call out their sources by "proving it" and yes, JP does talk more than people may think

My Lord. 25 straight road losses. That’s incredible.

ask yourself who benefits from starting this little rumor. It isn’t pollard. It isn’t TJ. It sure as hell isn’t prohm.

things that make you wonder.....

Three practical options:

1. Fred leaks this because he does want out and wants to garner support for a return.
2. Pollard leaks this out so he can tell people he tried but Nebraska’s buyout was too stiff to overcome.
3. It’s all bull ****.

I’d go #3 in a landslide followed but #1 with #2 a distant third.

#1 and #2 make perfect sense if you believe this:

Fred has reached out to Pollard and very much wants to come back. Neb is even willing to help make it happen if ISU wants Fred.
There is a fairly high chance that even if Fred doesn’t end up back home coaching, he will be leaving Nebraska this year.

The only part of my brain I'm using, and limited I'll admit, is common sense. If you can't back up what you are posting then don't post.
Get a grip. You aren’t entitled to proof and I am not divulging how I got the info. Prohm will be resigning soon and the unknown variables will be divulged by the person in the AD who is tight lipped.

it’s all very interesting, isn’t it?

I think number 3 is mostly likely with the caveat that there’s enough smoke that it wasn’t all out of thin air.

I think number 1 is possible but not for the reason you said. I think it’s Hoiberg people leaking this.

number 2 is least likely.
