There seem to be a lot of folks on CF acting like ToE fans.
Probably need to have extensive use of the ban-hammer or ignore button. :mad:

Take some meds and take a nap. You will feel better.

I think that applies to everyone on here. I'm just repeating everything that I am reading in this thread and the game thread.

If Prohm is as awful as is being written on here, then he should be fired. I say, don't let him on the bus.

Or it could be that everyone is over-reacting because they are children and when confronted by an over the top overreaction, they don't know what to do.

Fire Prohm!

He's probably going to be our Tom Davis. 20-10 and just a shade above .500 every year in the conference. Some can handle it, and some can't.

Ehhh....he's not that good. I just read that he is the worst coach in the conference. Everyone is pointing out major flaws. I think he's more like our Todd Lickliter.

Losing always sucks, but we shot 10% from the 3-point line (2-20) and we were still in it right to the end.

We definitely need to be more consistent and tougher at home, but those are fixable issues.
This is true if we just make some shots we win. However, this is not a first-time thing. We've had a lot of games where we have just flat-out shot poorly with a game (KSU game in Manhattan) when we were on fire. I think this team is just not that great of a shooting team which is what it is, but because of the offense and personnel we have, that's concerning. I am just hoping when the tournament rolls around it's our turn to be that team to just click and get hot for a couple of weekends. You can never say never because there have been far worse teams make Elite 8's and beyond in recent years.

So this game is shooting, last game was rebounding, the game before was defense. This team always has an excuse. Facts are we got swept by baylor and tcu and are out of the conf running in a season where KU is not good. The only thing Steve Prohm's teams have consistently done is underachieve.

I mean cause we are a powerhouse and just have sooooooooooooo many championships huh.

Some of you seriously need some realistic perspective

Well, we have two hanging from the rafters, which is more than most other programs in this league and could have had another this year.

Prohm is an above average coach and has done a good job of maintaining the program's success. It just doesn't appear that he can take ISU to "the next step." Maybe that's okay with most fans, but this year has been a bit brutal considering the opportunity we squandered.

TJ most certainly isn't the answer either. Someone proven with P5 experience. ISU has built a nice little national rep and we could steal someone.

I definitely think there is a soft bigotry of low expectations for some.

For sure, we should expect him to do something that only one coach has in our history.

What's your list of replacements? Who is going to come in here and win that championship? It's probably TJ.

That's right! Fire him!
