Until the season started. If he were ready for a hc job he would have gotten one this offseason.
Is it better for the kid to have that or tell him he has a lot to work on, honor his commitment and then when he’s there tell him he probably will never see the field?
Honestly I would prefer that if it was my kid.
I'd argue being the OC at a blue blood program with 30 mil a year to spend might be more desirable than being the HC at Iowa State.
Does that go for assistant coaches as well? Tyler Roehl comes to mind, he left - did you wish him failure. Now that he’s back???
He has gotten head coaching offers. Not power 5 but group of 5. Not surprised you didn't know that.
You give the kid a chance and honor his commitment. Not doing so is unheard of in football. Even in this landscape.
Look at the coaching carousel. There are coordinators from better programs than ISU that took over programs in a lot worse shape than ISU.

Uuummmmmm……..did you express this when Campbell pulled offers?
Campbell didn't pull offers after they signed the letter of intent. Only time I can remember him pulling an offer was over discipline issues.
TJ did this when he took over the BB job and it's turned out pretty well. People were pissed when he ran off Bolton and a few others. If s coach doesn't believe in you the that player either had to win over the coach or move on.
The reality is pulled offers by new staff is an age old reality.
The NIL loss makes it a bigger deal, but keep in mind we have no recourse over players either.
It’s a business.
Fans are told that all the time now.
It’s a business for everyone now.
The only positive thing from this is that it appears Jimmy has confidence he’s gonna get the players he wants.

Honestly, I wasn’t aware of it.
Presumably he didn’t pull offers because of a different direction. But if he pulled offers from someone committed because they found someone better? **** him.
I did ******* hate the rumors I heard about Hoiberg essentially managing kids out.
Have a frank conversation about what a kid needs to do to succeed? Sure.
I may be a bit old-school here, but I absolutely believe a coach has a responsibility to the athletes. Unless they earnestly help the kids on their team make an informed decision that is best for them they’re not acting with integrity.
My understanding is that this is what TJ does. If not, **** him too.
You're literally on here clamoring that its ok to do sketchy s**t to make room for Washington State's 75th ranked recruiting class. Eff that.
Last I checked ISU isn’t a group of 5 job. I am surprised you didn’t know that.
You think all those kids left or didn’t show up for a season just decided to walk away?
So I remember people being upset Bolton left, but I thought it was a Bolton not liking what he was told was expected of him?
Is that not true?
Obviously Bolton had the talent to be a starter on TJ’s first team. No chance he was run off for lack of basketball ability.
