Grow up, all I do is present facts on these threads, and use those facts to back up my opinions that Prohm isnt quite getting it done here. Nice to know all you guys are fine with being under .500 in the Big 12.
We've only been under .500 one year with Prohm and I don't remember anyone saying they were "fine" with it.
 
Yeah, Im a troll because I expect better results than 13-23 with "his guys" and 2 games under .500 in the Big 12 so far with all these top recruits and Hoibergs players.

Nice to know you expect mediocrity.

Dude you can't use the BS "his guys" argument. Prohm is a good recruiter, its proven he can get talent. So while guys like Monte, Naz, and Matt might have been Hoiberg recruits, they played just as much under Prohm as they did Hoiberg and I'd argue that all 3 of those wouldn't have seen the success they've had without Prohm. Matt didn't hit his stride until his work with Prohm and seemed to be a headcase under Hoiberg and Monte didn't get the greenlight for his patented pull up mid-range jumper until Hoiberg left.

And before you say, but but transfers. Yes Prohm missed on some transfers and it's probably not his strength, but I'd says he's been just as successful with the sit out 1 year transfers as Hoiberg. He's been pretty bad at getting the immediate eligible transfer, but I think his success with high school kids outweighs that.
 
Claiming 8 of the 15best recruits is a very selective use of specific recruit ranking services and ignoring JC and transfer players. It doesn’t pass the smell test for long time ISU basketball fans.
Or the old folks can stop being bitter *****
 
You must not habe ever seen him play. Great shooter, rebounding machine, blocks lots of shots. Hell of a player

Well the guy you're replying to has a pretty solid history of being right with his sources. I think I'm going to take his word for it. Also, CyTwins might be a bit of a loose cannon but is right more than he's wrong and he's saying the same thing so I think Anderson's gone
 
What's the story? He wasn't super highly regarded but had some decent/good offers. Total mis-judgement by the staff?


He was not really highly regarded. Pretty sure everyone on here though of him as a 4 year roll player. Wasn't recruited by to many of the big dogs. If I remember right it was like us and Wake Forest or some teams like that. I hope that he comes around. However, he is not a Marcedus Leech type guy with huge upside. I think he is one of those "He is what he is" type guys.

Shayok is the only one of Prohms transfers you could put in the Top 10 of transfers since 2011. Prohm's high school recruiting has been better, his transfers worse so it's a wash as far as recruiting goes.

I don't have an issue at all with his recruiting, what gets me angry is the results we've seen with these recruits. We'll see what happens the next 2 years, those will be crucial to how long he will remain here.

Not to get back on topic, but this kid looks like he has some solid offers even though his ranking isnt the greatest, so hopefully him and Foster both are on campus in 2020.
