Regardless of steve's line-ups, coaching, etc. its pretty amazing that:

5 returning players basically didn't improve at all: Lewis, Griffin, Solo/Jake/Conditt
4 recruits: 0-4, 2 transfered before the season even started and we're getting nothing from jackson and grill
1 transfer: nixon, not ready for b12 ball

we're a mess right now.

i know its not proper CF ettiquette to criticize players, but they're all struggling horribly

sometging is rotten when you got two guys transferring out before the year starts, there are just problems here everywhere

With the season going the way it is and Tyrese very likely going pro after this year...what are the chances that Foster changes his mind after seeing this bad season and Iowa doing well and seeing a big like Garza go ballistic every game? Pretty high?

This. We can put blame on CSP all we want, but we don't have the horses to run with the majority of the Big XII right now. Simple as that. The scary part is I don't see any realistic hope for next season either with TH going pro.

I remember when CW said before the season, even though we have less talent than last season, this team would be more enjoyable to watch and we would like their effort more. (Or something along those lines). Well, that didn’t age well.. at all.
This team might be one of the most frustrating teams I’ve ever watched and that includes all of McD’s teams.
Lol. That wasn't just CW.

I remember multiple posters, last season and this preseason, saying they'd rather not have a selfish THT and Wigginton on the team. Well we got it.

The whole "more enjoyable to watch" is so dumb to me. Wins are enjoyable to watch.

Does anyone really develop, or markedly improve under Prohm? Nobody really comes to mind.

I want ISU players to benefit from their time at ISU. So while I don’t want to see good players transfer, great players leave early for the NBA, nor recruits ask for a release, I really do want to see these things happen.

Players deserve better and the AD needs a clear path to act with fan support. Waiting after this year only drags this on longer. (Thus allowing all the players to revisit their decision and stay)
