can we move on from tj talk too?
I spend way too much time on here and I'm part of the premium board and I haven't heard this before.
Solo not returning (wasn’t expecting him to)
Can’t blame him. Roster is going to be completely turned over next season. That’s a good thing.
Does anyone have a Gazette subscription? I knew I read this somewhere. All I can extract from the Google search is:
'Steve Prohm,' said Fred Hoiberg to Jamie Pollard ... “full support” of Pollard to replace Hoiberg, but Leath wanted to hire “a brand name.

Hlas: "Steve Prohm," said Fred Hoiberg to Jamie Pollard
AMES – So who first suggested to Jamie Pollard that he consider Murray State's Steve Prohm as Fred Hoiberg's replacement? …

Well gee, how about that? So much for the "Leath overruled Pollard and told him to hire Prohm" lie...
"A June 2 CBSsports.com story said sources claimed Cyclones assistant coach T.J. Otzelberger had the “full support” of Pollard to replace Hoiberg, but Leath wanted to hire “a brand name.”
"Pollard bristled at that here Tuesday, saying “there’s no truth to that at all. I have my theory why and how that got out. That doesn’t matter because I’m past it. But it was frustrating because that impacted (Leath), that impacted me, that impacted the players, that impacted the candidates.
“That’s really unfortunate because it was total garbage. Whoever planted that had an agenda, and that’s for their life to live.
“There was a lot of misinformation to waste peoples’ energy.”
You couldn’t possibly expect Pollard to say anything different, could you? It’s basic PR. May or may not be true, but Pollard had to say this.
It’s kinda like when Hoiberg said Prohm was exactly who he would’ve hired and was his top choice and he told that to JP. A bunch of posters latched on to it as fact, when it was pure PR. Hoiberg didn’t have any history with him and barely knew who he was, but of course he said that for both personal and ISU PR.
So let's see, who are we to believe is full of s***......
A. the sources who claim TJ had JP's full support but Leath said no
B. Cyclonefanatics who believe those sources
C. JP and Fred
I think A and B would be a safe place to put your money. He "had to say this". No he didn't. That article was written June 9th 2015. Hate to burst your bubble folks.......but TJ wasn't/isn't all that. Not enough for JP to go into "PR" mode to keep the dastardly truth from coming out. And more that the "sources" are full of it........Leath wanted a "brand name"? Really? Steve Prohm/Murray State......a brand name? That's some funny s***.
It’s common knowledge that Pollard wanted to name TJ head coach. Leath wanted him to interview others, and hire the best candidate(even if it was still TJ). They hired a search firm(just like they used to hire CMC), and Prohm ended up with the job.
Prohm may have interviewed very well, by mentioning he had previously talked to Fred about installing a similar system at Murray ST, and mentioning his faith during the interview. I’m sure it wasn’t as blunt as “ we to to the same church “, but it’s not crazy for a religious person to mention faith and/or god.

Its almost like Pollard is super unlikeable, especially if it is someone that has a different opinion. Surprise to NOBODY. The bootlickers here dont want to hear it, but it is what it is.

Young's senior night matchup with TCU boosted by his mother's first game in Hilton - Cyclone Fanatic

Who's this so called "search firm" and how do we get in contact with them to voice our displeasure about the dumpster fire program they left us with?
A lot of the books have this as a pick'em. I know it's ISU senior night, but something doesn't smell right about this...Dixon notoriously has coached circles around Steve head to head, and TCU won last time despite missing one of their top players. I could see our guys, even if they are not mentally defeated following Tuesday's game, just simply getting out-hustled tonight, by a team that just abused them in the low-post last time. Who's betting ISU ML in this one?
Parker Search, but Jamie says they use them for their resources, not to just hire them to go find the next coach and then have them sign the contract
"Jamie says"...he couldnt possibly be constantly feeding you people red meat because everyone just eats it up.
Our AD history is so bad that yall worship a guy that has overseen the destruction of our once proud hoops, wrestling and gymnastics programs.
What have you been up to lately Bruce? Besides being back in CF?
