I am not best friends with TJ. Never met him. Put a few things in perspective. TJ is an outstanding recruiter. One of the best. The Midwest and Iowa State is the recruiting landscape that TJ knows best. Prohm with his Alabama and Kentucky contacts never really fit us. It all comes down to Staff. From the Podcast it sounds like TJ has a great Staff that will come on board. TJ is only 43 years old. TJ can recruit. He has had decent success in his early days of Coaching. IMO the hiring of TJ does have potential to work out well for Iowa State. We do not have very many good players on our roster. The cupboard is pretty empty. Nothing like Prohm was left with.
same Message tj had when he took over SDSU, cupboard was bare
