    Who is ISU true comp in Big 12 MBB and just who do we think we are?

    Top half? Kansas, Baylor, Texas, WVU, TTU and Oklahoma all have very good arguments over ISU. Not to mention OSU.

    Who is the best coach in college basketball right now?

    You being serious ... I bet Cronin didn’t pick his team to make the final four in his own pool.

    Who is the best coach in college basketball right now?

    I’m glad Coach K isn’t getting talked up here. I was extremely disappointed in his stance early in the season (after Duke uncharacteristically lost a few non-con games) that we shouldn’t be playing in this Covid era. Was glad to see several coaches call his ass out saying he wouldn’t have...

    Coach TJ’s Coaching StAff

    As a wild idea ... what about Henderson at SDSU? He was TJs replacement there. Coached at ISU under McDemott. He probably could/would make a lot more $$ as an ISU assistant. i suspect he’s real happy at SDSU and giving up first chair for the 2nd chair might be tough but they’re also...

    Hoiberg to Huskers

    https://www.omaha.com/huskers/plus/nebraska-targets-ex-iowa-state-coach-fred-hoiberg-as-possible/article_3473bf32-826a-5d88-954c-488a4f97fc44.html Interesting tidbit ... Fred's grandfather once coached in Lincoln. Might explain some of the allure.

    Be careful what you wish for ... you might actually get it!

    Hoiberg to Huskers

    Disagree ... not one player including the one in his little rant are offended by his behavior. Yes, Izzo is a bit old school but I suspect you'd have a hard time finding any of his ex-players who'd have an issue him their head coach!

    Prohm to Alabama?

    No ... the SEC is a deeper conference, has blue blood UK and near blue blood Florida. Tennessee, Florida, LSU, Auburn, Ole Miss compare very favorably to the B12's ISU, Texas, Oklahoma, K-State, WVU. And yes it is because of football not basketball but the SEC has deeper pockets, more money...

    Prohm to Alabama?

    Look at the Wikipedia link someone posted ... most of his stops have been in the 3 to 4 year range. Being able to go to Alabama gives him for certain a 3 to 4 year window before he needs to worry about possibly getting fired. If he goes 10-18 next year at ISU - his seat gets warm. If he goes...

    Prohm to Alabama?

    1. I think its silly to suggest that the job at Alabama is a step down. Yes, they have not had as much on court success as ISU but SEC>B12 in basketball Alabama has more money and resources than ISU ... means more money for him and his assistants 2. It is closer to his home and his coaching...

    South Dakota State Job

    That is silly ... a HC job at most D1 schools (whether it is a P5 school or not) IS a better job than most P5 assistant jobs. Why do you think these assistants do the job? Certainly not for the money. They are solidly mid-major BTW.

    Otzelberger Offered UW-M Job Before Chancellor Overruled Decision

    Fred went from being a head coach to a head coach ... much different going from an assistant to a head coach!

    Otzelberger Offered UW-M Job Before Chancellor Overruled Decision

    TJ has had this going on for a couple of years. I believe he was a finalist for the South Dakota (USD) job that went to Craig Smith.

    Otzelberger Offered UW-M Job Before Chancellor Overruled Decision

    Would be hard to do and hard to prove. UWM must have an F'd up administration. If the President/Chancellor was worried about minority hiring ... why wouldn't you tell the search committee/AD BEFORE they started the hiring process that was an important issue? Why would you let them go through...

    Kostas Antetokounmpo

    Anyone can cut up highlight film to make someone look good. His shot is inconsistent and needs refinement. In college he's likely to play a SF or stretch PF. Those roles will require improvement in his shooting game, particularly mid-range, pull up jumpers.

    Kostas Antetokounmpo

    Kostas is a rare talent that ISU would be lucky to get. Extremely athletic and extremely long 7'2" wing span, legitimate 6'10/6'11" length Quick Can't shoot - but is s gym rat Having arrived from Greece and only spent 2 years in an American high school system his grades are all messed up...

    UW-Milwaukee fires coach

    Rob Jeter at UWM has a 184-170 record. 11 seasons - 4 losing season, 4 20-win seasons, 2 NCAA appearances. Frankly rather average performance. The school does have some APR issues and was banned from the post season for a year. Jeter, a Bo Ryan disciple, tried to run the program in a...

    Keeping TJ

    I think he (TJ) stays for a year and then makes a full court press for a head coaching job somewhere. Pad your resume working for McDermott, Romar, Hoiberg and Prohm. Good references, larger network. Keeping him for at least a year would also be a smart move by Prohm. Helps with transition...
