I'm thinking next year will be Prohm's last. Halliburton will be gone, and when the 20 point loss continue to pile up for the second year in a row I think that'll be enough.

All 3 are dribbling way more than pretty much anyone should be out of the half court. At some point, it's being allowed.
Hell, they don't pass the ball that well when the do move it around. At least Bolton can somewhat-consistently make something of his dribbles.
Flipping between Duke/Louisville and UNI/Bradley and overall, anyone catching the ball is looking to pass first.
Different players, different situations but you can tell it's instilled.
Wish we would have gotten AJ Green. He is the type of player that would open everything up. We are that close to being competitive I feel. Competitive meaning have a look at the tournament not complete world beaters. Having a guy 45% from downtown would be huge and then people would see how gifted TH truly is.
Yeah, i think anyone being honest with themselves sees this as the likely outcome next year.
Which sucks, because at the point you've already done that math, you might as well pull the trigger this year. But money will probably prevent that.
I’m legitimately afraid he gets the year after next year.
I wanted a system guy once too and we got McDermott. Be careful what you wish for. I’m giving Prohm this year only because I have to, he isn’t going anywhere a year removed from a tourney title, NCAA berth and having to rebuild the roster for various reasons. He just isn’t.
The kids played hard for the most part the last 2 games but man they suck shooting the ball. We need a juco fix, there has to be a recruitable shooter somewhere.
Things I need to see next year is better fundamental basketball, I’m not optimistic. These incoming wings need to be junkyard dogs plain and simple. We are missing wings this year in a big way. I’m hoping these new guys at least hustle.
He better hope Foster saves his ass next season and blows up as a player.
Jacobsen looked much better at the 5 today despite foul trouble which coincidentally is where he looked best last year.
I was unclear but more referring to his 3pt shooting, but yes I also noticed he put a better product out there today. Some of his fouls calls were... Questionable. Of course that happens on an otherwise good day for him.
MJ's actually pretty great at scraping for the ball under the basket for a putback.
If we keep getting our asses kicked JP won't have a choice. He will get next year after that no way.
McDermott got his ass kicked on multiple occasions through all 4 years and JP had him set to come back a 5th year. I wouldn’t say JP wouldn’t have a choice.

Just scrolling through scores from that year.
79-44 @ Drake in year 2. That's not good.
Geez I forgot about stuff like that.
Beat Iowa that year though! And he opened his time at ISU with saying how he was looking forward to beating Iowa some more.
That was a red flag right there that he really didn't know what ISU basketball was about.
