I know several older fans who don't follow recruiting, etc and honestly, CSP never stood a chance with those guys. He got zero praise for coming in a moving things forward yet these same guys railed on him for having an incomplete roster. I've tried having rational conversations with these people and your just not going to change their minds. Sadly, they would rather see Prohm fail just to say "I told you so".


Do these "older fans" actually go to games? How can they not like the way he kept the team and fans engaged last year? He even got fans to come to KC for the Big 12 tournament.

Some do and some don't. Last year was gas on the fire for the anti CSP fans even though the writing was on the wall...

I've decided that when it comes to both sports and politics, old people really kind of suck.

Prohm should be a P5 assistant coach, who is great at recruiting, dude should have never been offered a P5 head coaching Position.

If he does not make it to the dance, time to fire him and start over. Otherwise we will be have years of mediocrity and then end up losing the basketball Brand, that Fred rebuilt with great difficulty.

The coach cost us this game. Got to plug lane and make them shoot tough out side shot. If Wigginton could have made free throws they would have to shoot from distance! Conditt deserves A lot more minutes. WHERE and why did Young not see the floor?

I just can't believe all the Prohm haters. Even with the refs wanting KSU to win all game long, he still coached us to the point we had the game won. The players were giving a half a$$ effort all game long except for Halliburton and Conditt.

Is it Prohm's fault nobody can hit a wide open 3 all game? Is it his fault we can't make FT's in the clutch? Is it his fault nobody even tried to stop Brown on his game winning drive?

I swear this time of year everyone always throws Prohm under the bus, and then by the end of the year they are praising him.

To answer your question, partially yes. Why do our teams consistently have issues at the FT line? He put the players out there to finish the game and determined the matchups. How long do you plan to give CSP a pass?

I've defended him since he's been here, but he's starting to lose me at this point. I get he didn't miss the 3 or the FT's at the end, but this is becoming common where we choke at the end.

Edit: I don't want to feel this way, either. He is a very good recruiter and seems like he enjoys being here, but you cant lose games like this when you're up 7 with a couple minutes left.
