Prohm Fired

I don’t have a Twitter account. However, others that do think this Tweet is completely BS.
Just came back from grocery shopping and saw the news. I have mixed feelings.
Coach Prohm is a great man and a good basketball coach. I was rooting for his success here from the day he was hired and I will continue supporting him wherever he ends up. It's so unfortunate that he can't survive in the brutal Power 6 MBB business where some coaches have to sell their souls to the "devil" in exchange for wins and program success. Please remember the bright days of Coach Prohm's era. We have won 2 Big12 tournament championships, 3 NCAA tournament games and made it to a Sweet Sixteen. We have the most of ISU players playing in the NBA right now. Even though his last two years' record is awful, he still ended his Iowa State tenure with a winning record. Which school that hires him in the future will get a great man who would run a clean basketball program the right way. I hope we fans can give our next coach the time and allow him to build a solid foundation and establish a winning culture that fits Iowa State. I pray we find our next Matt Campbell in basketball.

Everyone always settles, unless you're hiring Coach K. Doesn't mean you aren't getting a good coach though.
Just like in recruiting. No one actually gets their first choice, otherwise they'd be signing the top 5 recruits every year. Doesn't mean you can't still get good players, though.
Yes, god, please not the coach with the best winning percentage in school history. Anything but that.
Lots of Matta love but he’s been out of coaching for a few years and check his last 4 years at OSU - 39-33 at Ohio State.
Fred blows. Move on. Oh, and he QUIT on us.
Love all the Fred go to your knees folks here thinking the guy who QUIT on us is our future. Take your Fred posters down ... move on. Oh, and he QUIT us.
Why the jilted lover routine? Fred led us to our most successful 5 year run in program history. The guy left for his dream job. He is the only known quantity of all the candidates
You're delusional. He QUIT us. Move on.
There needs to be a special Fred thread where all you little sheep can gather and eat Fred's grass and talk about him coaching again ..... and oh ya, him QUITTING us.
Best winning percentage all time. Yeah, that sucked.
Damn, you’re really going to hate Matt Campbell someday.
Unfortunate, but he inherited a team that finished in the AP top 10 the year before he arrived, and with the exception of a blip year in ‘18-‘19 trended downward ever since. I can probably count the number of ISU games I’ve watched the last two years on one hand. Wish him well in his future endeavors, but it’s time to move on.
He hates recruiting so much that he landed a 5 star player to Nebraska of all places
