*** Official #19 IOWA STATE vs TCU Game(Day) Thread ***

[Peter]

I don’t want to fire Prohm yet. But I’m sure you were the same guy saying, if we fire Paul Rhoads, who the hell would we hire?!?!

Fred is available.

 

[xboxfever]

I'm not sure if that will happen...but if so where does this team sit at 19 wins? Bubble or just lower seed?

Bubble and likely out because of losing so many games in a row to end the season.

This team cannot control tempo against anyone. They've been good when they make jump shots (net necessarily good shots). Easy baskets with this team are extremely rare. As of late, they do not have player to score when needed (poor ball movement may be a big factor here too).

The missed jump shots are what's leading to easy run-outs for opponents as well. It certainly isn't because we're crashing the offensive boards.

 

[gwoodclone]

I wouldn’t be remotely shocked if we lost every game the rest of the way.

Man, I think I melt down bad sometimes but some of you guys really lose your minds.

 

[tim_redd]

Hopefully both teams will regress to their means in the second half and we'll get back in the game. It would be better if we were shooting better than 36.4%, locking them down defensively and gobbling up DRebs, but hope is all I got right now.

The mean of the last 3 halves against TCU would not be a good result.

 

[CyBobby]

If you think State has a chance in this game. You need to put the meth pipe down and check yourself into rehab.

Prohm lost the team on Tuesday

You mean to tell me that Prohm lost the team and hasnt found it back yet.....Well you might just be right on the mark cyfan92......

 

[jaj040]

They may have to play the play in Big 12 play in game

That was hard to read

 

[clonedlion]

Guess the good news is there is a second half to see some improvement, make a run and make it interesting.

 

[Die4Cy]

Fred is available.

Should have seen Duke the other night without Zion.
Obviously he's a big deal but it's not like their team isn't full of crazy talented players....

Our fans would have wanted to fire Coach K for losing at home with a roster full of McD AAs.

 

[NENick]

Horrible defense on the TCU post rolling to the basket. They should have scored 4-6 more points on that play.
Did play George. Didn't go well, but hard to expect much after as long as it's been since he played. Lard looked completely out of it, except on the first dunk. Even on the 2nd dunk he looked disappointed.
I don't know what to think.

 

[Thompsonclone]

When players start to call you out, it's probably time to stop.

I’m going to continue to tweet my opinion. If they want, they can unfollow me. I said nothing negative about the team. I said I’m not excited for today’s game. So far, this is exactly why. We are struggling big time.

 

[CloneGuy8]

What is going on with Dixon's hair? Its freaking me out

 

[clonedlion]

Our fans would have wanted to fire Coach K for losing at home with a roster full of McD AAs.

To another team with a McD's AA? Not quite the same as some of the losses for Iowa State.

Always...however with this team it just seems if it's not going well, it doesn't change.

I told my g/f Tuesday with about 5 minutes left in the first half that ISU would get beat by 5...at least I was wrong on the points?

 

[safmusic]

Just as well stay home from KC as wont win any more games this year. Probably not worth invite to big tourney. If ISU is they will be blown out.

 

[atlantacyclone]

We are a better team ... we are mentally screwed...

 

[Cy$]

Tiller needs more minutes

 

[drmwevr08]

This team is schizophrenic. Id rather watch a poor team give consistent effort and sometimes pull one out. They'll probably somehow win out now.

 

[IcSyU]

The good news is freshman turn into sophomores.

The Halliburton turnover is what you can't have when you're struggling offensively.
