You don't need to know a single thing about playing the piano and you would be able to tell I am quite awful at it.
we’re bad. Really bad. You don’t need to make **** up about his first two teams here to find things to criticize

You pulled it out of thin air quoting my post, which had nothing to do with it.
The head coach gets most of the praise. He chooses every aspect of the roster
He didn't choose the roster his first two years. It was given to him.
Seen too many "Fred's recruits"...."underachieved" BS describing his 23 and 24 win seasons too last me a lifetime.
That's a little simplistic of an analogy lol. People want to try and boil it down to as easy as being black and white, winning and losing, but that's not the case. We were winning last year and people were pissed because we weren't winning "enough".You don't need to know a single thing about playing the piano and you would be able to tell I am quite awful at it.
Actually it's quite opposite of a fact, considering last year we won 23 games, won a Big 12 tournament championship, beat a ton of ranked teams, were a 6 seed in the NCAA tournament, and were ranked to end the year.He didn't choose the roster his first two years. It was given to him. Since he lost those players, it's been downhill. That's a fact.
So you think the program is in a better place now that it was at the end of the 2017 season? You might be the only one.Actually it's quite opposite of a fact, considering last year we won 23 games, won a Big 12 tournament championship, beat a ton of ranked teams, were a 6 seed in the NCAA tournament, and were ranked to end the year.

The program is worse that it was when he started. That is by definition, downhill. Are you able to have a rationale, unemotional thought?so you made a stupid argument, that was false. Got called on it.
and, instead of just saying you were wrong, you revert back to groupthink nonsense.
Facts really don’t matter to you. Good job

Go ahead and show me how its false, genius.Are you? Are you incapable of understanding context and reasons?
Your post was dumb. You got called on it, and you’re still incapable of admitting that you made a dumb and demonstrably false post.
He also built the piano though, and is paid millions to do so. The university also pays to ship the piano around the country to competitions where other well compensated piano builders then pants Prohm on national television. Sure some bad luck is involved, but we even paid a small university to come compete against us at home, and their piano beat ours even though our piano builder get paid 15+ times as much money.That's a little simplistic of an analogy lol. People want to try and boil it down to as easy as being black and white, winning and losing, but that's not the case.

And using the piano analogy as far as this season goes. Prohm's dealing with playing a piano where some of the keys are in different spots, one's broken, a few of them sound a bit off, some keys are missing, but Prohm's being yelled at by fans to sound like Mozart.
Go ahead and show me how its false, genius.
The problem with the second part is that he should not just be playing the piano in your analogy. He was also in charge of the keys being put in different spots and keys being missing. I'm sure he knew THT was a one and done if possible, and that Wigginton was unhappy. These things didn't happen overnight. He didn't replace them adequately and this is the result. These things didn't just happen to him, I would argue they happened in large part because of him.That's a little simplistic of an analogy lol.

Prove it and make some. All u do is defend him and his embarrassing season.[/QUOTE][QUOTE="Cat Stevens, post: 7056022, member: 37341"
again, and I say this often, there’s enough legitimate criticisms for Steve Prohm and the job he’s done here, you don’t have to be a simpleton, or make **** up.
We've taken a step back but every single year is fluid. One year's success doesn't mean the next year or the year after is going to be successful, especially in today's world of college basketball. Success doesn't happen overnight for a large majority of coaches / programs and we were incredibly lucky and spoiled to be able to have Hoiberg come to Iowa State and basically build a foundation from the ground up in about a year and a half.So you think the program is in a better place now that it was at the end of the 2017 season? You might be the only one.
Wigginton didn't leave Iowa State because he was unhappy, he left it because he believed he was good enough to play in the NBA at the time. And absolutely this season is on Steve because it's his roster, but people are acting like he can't be a good coach when last year he proved he can turn it around in a year's time.The problem with the second part is that he should not just be playing the piano in your analogy. He was also in charge of the keys being put in different spots and keys being missing. I'm sure he knew THT was a one and done if possible, and that Wigginton was unhappy.

John Calipari lost to Evansville this year at home, who is 9-22 and didn't win a single game in the Missouri Valley Conference lol. Kentucky is a ton better than us too.He also built the piano though, and is paid millions to do so.
