Prohm to Alabama?

[SoapyCy]

It really isn’t. Regionally and money wise and cache Alabama dwarfs Iowa State.

Alabama is not a better basketball school than Iowa State. Period.

I am disappointed to hear that you don’t care. Tough to come up short in the eyes of such an esteemed poster like yourself.

No worries. Try giving a little better effort next time.

That is currently true, but every program, especially ones that print money, is a hire away from relevance.

Conversely, every program like Iowa State, is a hire away from being irrelevant.

It will be really interesting to see how much Auburn’s success will motivate them.

Also, don’t forget about LSU

I’d prefer to keep Prohm and expect him to be our coach for the foreseeable future. But, if and when he goes Otzelberger is coach in waiting.

JP won’t even finish getting out “will you be our coach?” before he accepts the job

Barf. At least this board will be forced to support him.

Until he loses a game. Then who do we compare him to?? Prohm or Fred?

Best we could probably do was an assistant coach at a mid-major.

Because they pour money into football, apparently that means they pour money into basketball as well. State of Alabama is a real high school basketball hotbed as well.

I will punch Prohm in the nuts if he leaves for Alabama.

It is baffling to me how some on here actually want Fred over Prohm...Fred is never ever returning to coach at ISU...ever.

What is really going to sting is if Prohm leaves and Fred still hasn’t taken a job and declines ISU...Wanna see Fred legend status plummet...wait until that happens..

But it won’t...Prohm isn’t leaving ISU for quite some time which is good.

Fred can go to Lincoln..good luck in that sh@$ hole...

Loved Fred as player and coach....I have moved on. Don't give a ****. As far Prohm, so far I have no major complaints. Sure there are things that he can do differently at times, but no coach is perfect...not even Fred.

As long as CSP is doing well here, I think he will stay. I really think he is happy here (when half the CF posters aren't calling for him to leave). How many times do you hear him compliment our fan base. He really appreciates it because he know what it isn't at other places. He knows it's special and he knows it won't compare to a place like his alma mater.

Proving you didnt actually read a damn thing i said this year.

I repeatedly said that he should still be here next year, but that people like you were being awful in piling on people who had any legitimate criticism of Prohm- and i think most rational people can see room for improvement, particularly in gameday coaching, even though he's still a solid coach overall. Its funny, you think i'm someone who hates prohm, yet i have a couple other friends who see me as one of his defenders.

Great post. I still don't get why everything on here is either/or about everything.

If you showed the same nuance in the Cave, you'd be the best poster on this board.

Gotta think the pressure would be on JP to go get Fred, or failing that, to go get TJ immediately.

Fred doesn't want to come back to Ames.......they have no lives of their own in that fishbowl. JP knows that and wouldn't even give him a courtesy call.

 

[Cyder91]

JP will give CSP a $300K raise and some more accelerators for Big 12 wins and everything will be fine. As long as Iowa State has Campbell JP has much more flexibility than he did when CFH was around.

THIS......CMC success creates cash flow for JP.....this creates more opportunities and flexibility in regard to CSP.

 

[Cyder91]

JP wouldn’t even call Hoiberg imo. I don’t think he was “comfortable” taking a backseat to Hoiberg.

I agree he wouldn't call him but not for your reason. He wouldn't call fred because JP knows that they just didn't like how the fans and community constantly smothered them. They couldn't live anywhere near a normal life out in public without being bothered.

Ask Frost how that is in Lincoln.

 

[Cyched]

Ask Frost how that is in Lincoln.

Frost at Nebraska is similar to what Fred was here (native son, Husker star, came back)

Fred would get attention there, but it wouldn't be the fishbowl he had in Ames

 

[Cyder91]

I wouldn't be too worried about this.

When Chris chimes in, it's like the heavens opened up and the true word from above has been spoken! Chris knows....'nuf said.
