Bump.

@ChrisMWilliams: Prohm on Tsalmpouris: Still unsure if he will be back with ISU next season. Pretty vague. #Cyclones

@TravisHines21: Steve Prohm says Tsalmpouris’ status is up in the air. Doesn’t know if he’ll return. Said will be decided in the next month.​


I hope he comes back. I think he's a great development in waiting. May not see a lot of time this year or even next year much, which isn't good for our chances of him staying long, but I think with the right amount of development time he is a standout senior waiting to happen.

I think he may be dating a tennis player, I wonder if that will be enough to sway him to come back? well, besides the obvious great team we have next year and all of that.

One would think email would be an option... at least better than twitter. I'm old fashioned.

What are Tsalmpouris's options in Greece? Is he a legitimate prospect who can make good money going pro there? His stats in the summer league seem good, but I don't really know what they mean.

I hope GT decides to return to ISU, however, I'm guessing it's probably unlikely. This is nothing but a pure guess on my part though. I have no information whatsoever.

I just think it will be tough for him to leave home again and come halfway across the planet to a place that no longer has Fred Hoiberg at the helm.

We already have a ton of open schollies next year, and this would just be one more. I sure hope Prohm and this staff will be able to recruit. Having a REALLY good year this year will not hurt, that's for sure.

Greece, even as a basketball player, is not a place you want to be right now. Especially as a young man who would presumably be looking for work.

The team keeps telling them they miss him and hope to see him soon, and he says the same thing back.
