Hell most of the state didn't get to see it, but it sure was fun to listen to on the radio. Down 3 at half when our guards were cold, wasn't bad at all. But go ahead and keep believing we're terrible.
UNI vs. ISU - thoughts/predictions?

iSu led for the first five minutes and the last 9:00. It was back and forth for the first few in tthe second half.
iSu missed quite a few open shots in the first half.
iSu started slow and finished strong. Shot 32% in the first half and 58% in the second half. Obvioulsy Prohm should have made adjustments quicker in the first half.
So by your standards...Prohm still didn't coach well
All I did was give an opinion based on what I thought as true. In this instance, and for this game, I was clearly wrong. I never said ISU was terrible, I never said I hated anyone. I simply said I don't trust Prohm given his history, but I can't deny he and the team did well against UNI. I also said I hope I was wrong and I hope they continue to do well the rest of the season.
His history? Prohm has the highest winning percentage of any coach in school history, has a winning percentage in the NCAA Tournament, won at AFH and won a Big 12 Tournament Title. What history are you talking about?
You're fishing and we've been through this. I am not on here enough to have a continuous conversation that gets nowhere. We can talk about what he inherited vs other coaches and missteps or not, etc. etc. Bottom line is, I have my opinion, you have yours. He continues to excel at ISU in the next couple years and I will gladly change my mind. You constantly trying to further this without any change in our conversation isn't beneficial.
And is going to gain a reputation as someone that on a regular basis has a shot at getting a player drafted/play in G league. Once that continues to happen, the recruits will get even better, although I’m damn happy with how it’s currently going. Bright future for the program and coach.
Well saying you don't trust a coach given his history when his history is very good makes you look dumb
Also, not really concerned of your opinion of my intelligence. If you base intelligence off subjective opinions on sports, than maybe you are the one that isn't too bright.
I'd like to hear more about the Murray St games @clonedlion watched.
I know Twins was going to DMACC in Carroll at age 15, so he is pretty bright.
He struggled in his third year with losing the good players he inherited. They started slow year three. Same thing with ISU. He admitted he should've started Young earlier, were out of sync offensively. and the biggest thing was how he coached Purdue. I find int interesting that folks are ok with how that game was managed.
Clearly nothing I say is going to change anyone's mind. based on that, I am not going to call him the next great thing like many appear to think of him, especially when his most successful seasons are inheriting players from previous coaches.
Im deducing based on his first two years at ISU. He had Cam Payne, which others touted as a sign of his coaching brilliance, but they struggled out of the gate. If it happens and he has admitted that he did that last year, then it would seem reasonable to say, maybe he is reactive, not proactive. Hence, continuing to wait to go small against Purdue, when any tape of Purdue shows that is how you beat them.
So when you said the quote below you were just talking out of your ass?
You stated your opinion based on one game, and slow starts to the season.
When asked to clarify your stance on the slow starts and how that equates to not being a good coach, you never responded.
You claimed Jacobson is a "great" coach because of....actually you didn't give a reason. When people pointed out that Prohm has accomplished as much as Jacobson in a shorter time frame you did not clarify why Jacobson is a "great" coach and Prohm is not.
When people ask you to clarify your comments, it is not fishing. IT is asking questions to try and understand your point.
When you don't give reasoning to back up your point...well... it doesn't make sense
