Will Prohm ever win a championship?

Also Prohm recruits at a higher level than Fred, has made it just as far in the tourney and actually wants to be here.

Fred could've been here forever and chose not to be. I love Fred , but let's not act his last game wasn't against UAB with more talent than this team.

Winning Big 12/NCAA championships will never be the expectations at Iowa State. You’re going to last a long time in Ames as the head coach if you just make the tournament.
 
No. That all we want as fans is to just get to the tournament and that’s it.

Personally I'd be fine with it. That's what fans should want...the tournament's too much of a crap shoot to just think a team can go far because they're good.

That's the beauty of it.

Ya I kind of get that and am thankful when we do make the tourney. I just think we should keep pushing to break out of mediocrity.
 
You still got confidence in Prohm? Why?

Oh let's see. Spitballing here...

  • He's taken us to a Sweet Sixteen
  • He's won a Big 12 Tourney title
  • He's won four league road games this year with two to play
    • This hasn't been done in close to 20 years by the way
  • He's finished with 12 league wins which ties the most Hoiberg had
  • His record on the road against ranked teams is impressive as hell

We should never expect more?
You might as well expect to marry a supermodel while you’re at it.

You can hope for more, but expecting Big 12 and NCAA tournament titles is just going to leave you disappointed every year.

My expectations every year are to make the tournament and my hope is to win some tournament games.

Making the NCAA tournament isn't mediocrity.

But sometimes you don't know what a team can do until they've actually done it, if that makes sense.

I don't see this team going on a run in March, but if they do, today won't matter.
 
We need to aim higher than the mediocrity of consistently making the tourney or winning a Big 12 tourney “title”

Any coach who cant win a real conf title by year 3 needs fired. Bottom line.

Our pansy fans wont let us hite a real coach like Eustachy. I would settle for Bill Self or Bruce Weber since the other 9 schools in our conference love mediocrity.

Firing mediocre coaches is the only way to achieve EXCELLENCE.
This poster can't be serious. I think you guys are getting trolled.
 
I can tell a lot of you didnt sit thru

If he’s trying to do that, it’s just dumb.

No, what’s dumb is we played a half of basketball today, and let one get away. And apparently people seem to think Iowa state has been a whole lot better historically than we have been.

I guess the good thing is that all of the “fans” have openly outed themselves, finally.

Now, we need to fire a coach because he is only making the ncaa Tournament.

That is far dumber than eatemup mocking them.

I didn’t catch much of the game day stuff, thankfully.
Went to the women’s game today. Decent crowd but damn does Baylor have some athletes.

They won’t beat UConn when it counts, but they will be one of the teams there.
