*** Official Iowa State Season Thread ***

I do wonder when people mention TJ Otzelberger on here is how do we know he would be a success? He was successful at a Mid-Major for a few years and then went up a level and hasn't done enough to prove he should be hired by ISU to improve our basketball program.
There are plenty of Mid-Major coaches out there that we can look at if we decide to make a change. I do not think we are going to be able to snag a coach from a P5 conference.

I don't like that move. Kind of disrespectful to the team. JP will wait until the season is over to address it, which he should. But it does need to happen, and as others have said, 80% of this team should go out the door with him as they are not big 12 players. I'll keep Solo (but of course, he's a senior) as a "bench/glue" guy, and Tre (shows potential). The rest can walk and it wouldn't upset me at all.
I mean it works out for Nebraska. They can let him go without paying him his buyout to fire him. Really a win win for all parties.
i would imagine you will get your wish in roster turnover. Might even be more.
To be fair though, he's at UNLV which is a pretty terrible job in and of itself in the last 2 decades. Their "success" is way behind them.

Meh. I really don't care about that. Dude knows he deserves to go.
I’d be 100% behind a “Bring Fred Home” movement
I'm awaiting with eager anticipation.
First day of Big 12 Tourney is March 10th, my spring break staycation begins March 11th. Here's to a quick and speedy announcement by JP that very same day to let my vacation begin with a sense of renewal and hitting 'refresh' here on CF to track the rampant scouring of flight logs of hopeful coaching candidates.
Been thinking about this a lot lately... what exactly is the mismatch Prohm is trying to create with his 4 guard BS offense?
I really don’t think he wants to be in Ames, FWIW.
There was a pretty credible rumor that he wanted to come back after being canned by the Bulls
For everyone involved Pollard will take the high road, allow Prohm to finish the year, and then fire him either the next day after we are bounced or after the Big 12 Tournament is finished.
Prohm will get his buyout, and I am sure Pollard is already looking at his list of candidates to replace Prohm, he is too smart to not being doing it right now.
Prohm, the other coaches and the players look like dead men walking right now, just going through the motions for another couple of weeks.

100% chance they've been talking and JP is working on a plan with or without Prohm at the helm.
0% chance JP has pulled the trigger and told CSP that mid-season.
Why would they let him walk scot-free after two years with their record?
I always interpreted their hiring of Fred as a sign they were investing in their BB program. They'd be dumb to force themselves to start over again without getting something in return.

There wasn't. It is one or two idiot posters who know nothing. Hoiberg doesn't want to coach here.
Jacksona and Solo are two of the first I would tell to look elsewhere. Walker and Foster are about it really.
