Like it or not this is Prohm's 2nd rebuilding year. He lost 4/5 of last year's best athletes (THT, Babb, LW and Lard) and replaced them with one athlete (Bolton). That's on Prohm for having a bad recruiting class, but let's not pretend that this team is loaded with talent. Because it's not. It's performing at about my expectations going into the season.

Did you expect even an average B12 team to lose to a 1-9 team that's never beaten a P6 team, in a place like Hilton Coliseum?

I might be wrong but I’m thinking we have more talent than Florida A&M

Last years team will end up having 3 NBA players. With a decent coach the season would’ve been far more successful.

You expected to lose to a MEAC team in Hilton? Now that's funny.

This is the biggest upset according to espn BPI since they started the statistic in 2007. We own the worst loss in BPI history.

I saw that scroll while watching the end of the Texas FB game and it surprised me. I would think a top 3 team losing at home to a mid major would have been worse.

This is what head buried in the sand looks like.

Your expectation was to lose to a MEAC squad at home. I’ve heard of moving the goal posts but good grief.
