I look at the grade more than the rank. 2018 had a lower ranking 28 than 2020 at 25 even though the grades were almost a full hundredth in 2018s favor. A kin to finishing 6th in the Big XII is usually better than 5th in the BiG.

You are spot on. To insinuate that the 2018 class was not a great class because a couple guys left early is just silly. Unless you are recruiting a Zion, it’s impossible to tell if a guy is only going to leave the program before they exhaust their eligibility. Having bad luck because your recruits performed well enough early on to put themselves in a position to be drafted in the NBA should no way held against the coach or suggest that it wasn’t a great class.
As it is with all coaches. If he goes on a run here of 4 straight tournaments, it’ll be all praise.
I'm not so sure. There are quite a bit of never-Prohmers who will always be around.
That would make a lot more sense. Guy always seemed to get off by stirring the pot.
I don’t think this is true. I’ve never been a Prohm lover, too many mistakes made in big spots. But I thought he was able to recruit at a high enough level that I maintained genuine passion for the program. He lost me with the Iowa game this season, but if he got us back to the tournament twice in a row I’d be in. Not asking too much.
The next three out of 4 would be perceived a lot differently in large part because it would have been built and developed entirely by him.
Fred pissed some games away his first season.
Steve had dominant teams before he got here I think because he had NBA PGs playing mid major talent. When he got here he had a loaded squad that covered his deficiencies. His ability to get players kept him above water but caught up with him when the roster has been lacking. Hopefully he's learned and like Fred shores up his in game deficiencies.
Fred ****** up a lot of games in Year 5, too.
It happens.
College basketball is 80%+ recruiting anyways.
The team with the best ponies usually wins the race.
