REPORT: Prohm tabs Small for his staff

[Dormeezy]

The CSP, CFH, CPR?

All lame.

Yup. Prohm, Hoiberg, and Rhoads would work just fine.

 

[jahfg]

Katz podcast makes it sound like Otz could definitely be on Prohm's staff. Hope it works that way. Small and Otz could be a heck of a tandem.

 

[cyclones12321]

Great! Now hoping for Otz/Chew to fill it out!

Need otz for midwest

 

[SerenityNow]

Liking what I'm seeing in the early stages of the new coaching regime.

 

[Gnomeborg]

We have had lots of assistant coaches that "know talent." Goal is to hire assistants that can consistently get top talent to sign with us.

Wait, signing talent? Crap, we've been doing this so wrong. Up until now, Iowa State's just been pointing at kids saying "he's got talent" and then heading home.

Man, I hope PrΩ reads the boards so he can get the new strategy memo as well.

@AlexHalsted: Prohm said him and William Small have the southern ties so he's looking for a Midwest guy and someone who can cover JUCO areas.

 

[Dandy]

@TravisHines21: ISU not making announcement regarding Small until university hiring process completes. But Prohm said on ESPN podcast Small was coming

 

[jwrussel]

I don't know a lot about Chew, other than what I have read on here, but from a geographical standpoint, wouldn't he and Otz have a lot of overlapping territory, and would it be better instead to have more geographical diversity - such as an East coast guy or someone with strong ties to big 12 area?

This could be completely off base, I have no idea.

Coach Small, welcome to Cyclone Nation! We get a bit carried away at times and tend to light our hair on fire but all we honestly want are Cyclone victories. (and a frequent curb stomping of the school to the East)

 

[Kitkat]

I agree that I like to see new coaches bring a guy or two on from their previous staff. Hopefully this guy is his best recruiter. Does anyone have any inside info on this guy at all as to who he has recruited in the past? One thing that is tough with talking about coaches from programs like Murray State is that there isn't exactly a plethora of information on them.

Not offering any new info, but if Coach Small worked for Floyd for a year, it is probably safe to say he learned something about defense, as Floyd did stress that, at least in his college coaching career. Then too, Prohm said he wanted us to play better D.

I think Prohm has plenty of defensive experience being that his mentor he worked for for 12 years was essentially a defensive coordinater at A&M.

I'm a big fan of frequent curb stomping of all of our opponents.

 

[ThurgoodMarshal]

Small is responsible for bringing Cameron Payne to Murray State.

Surprised you're so welcoming with your honor before victory opinion as stated in another thread.

This quote definitely points to Isaac Chew if you ask me. Proven midwest recruiter at Marquette, coached at Indian Hills so one would think he has connections there and at JUCOs in general.

 

[RustShack]

I think it's Chew or Otz. Both would be great, but I wouldn't count on it. Major homerun if it did though.

Dunno that I can blame him for half of those... (McNeill, Feazell, Juiston)

Agree on Juiston and McNeill. 50/50 on Fazelle because at one point he was committed to ISU
