I'm ready to run out in the streets, flip some cars and start some couches on fire after hearing that. PUMPED ABOUT PROHM!!!

Great basketball coach, even a better human being!

I wasn't aware that we needed more players for next season. Maybe we should focus on the ones that are going to help us win games, not the ones who wont play any minutes.

Ya, I'm dropping the mic now if this is what I'm working with.

You guys are right. Let's just sit back and watch everyone else do their thing during the final month leading up to the last live period before the majority of 2016's commit. That sounds like a great plan.

i am sure that was some coach speak. I love that he cares about his players.

Pammel Grocery? Really?

Yeah, that was an odd one. It's a great place, don't get me wrong, but in the same context as Hickory Park? Strange. There's a conspiracy here. Give me a few minutes to figure it out.

WTF-The media is a joke. No questions about a certain assistant?
No point, no incoming coach would talk about specifics of retaining or firing assistants at his announcement press conference. You'd just get a coach speak answer about finding the best guys for the job or whatever.

No questions for Leath or JP. Thats odd?

It's easier to write a conspiracy article or "speculative" article by guessing, not asking. In all seriousness, i am no media person, but i know there is a hint of "play nice" as they also don't want to cut off future opportunities with him. And, overall, there is a bit of respect not asking certain questions with the new coach right there. I thought Prohm seemed honest in his account of when he was contacted, etc.

Love the hire. Really like how he plans to be intentional about building relationships with the players.

I am changing my undecided feelings towards excitement. Not that I wasn't on board no matter what. Here's to a championship run.

My biggest take away is he is definitely a players coach. That will fit very well with this team and hopefully will make recruiting easier for him.
