#15 Oral Roberts vs #2 tOSU, Fri 3 ET on CBS

Well, I guess I'll finally come in and say something, that was a tough one to swallow and didn't think posting in here was probably a good idea given the mood I was in. After watching about every game this year, I really didn't think we would be a one and out team. I was concerned about our health and energy after a brutal B1G tournament, but thought we'd push through to win an ugly one. Frankly, I didn't even recognize that team out there, looked nothing like the rest of the season for the most part. The heat check for Duane was a harsh one and nobody else stepped up in his absence aside from Liddell. Having Young out hurt big time on a lot of the loose ball hustle plays that I didn't see us getting.

Not sure how I'm going to look back on this season. It was a really fun season and one that I think will help advance the program. But to end it on that note will be tough to ignore. In any event, thanks for the memories boys, we didn't lose on lack of effort. Just the perfect storm on an off day for Oral Roberts. On to the next season.

Iowa State Cyclones

Iowa State, coach Steve Prohm agree to part ways after Cyclones earn just two wins in 2020-21 season

Prohm went 97-95 with Iowa State in six seasons, and the Cyclones won just two games in the 2020-21 season.

Iowa State on Monday night announced it has come to an agreement to part ways with basketball coach Steve Prohm after six seasons. Prohm went 97-95 during his tenure and 40-68 in Big 12 play but posted a 2-22 record last season with zero of those wins coming against teams outside the major seven conference structure.

Its two wins this season were the fewest for the Iowa State program since 1924-1925.

Prohm's position as Iowa State's head coach entering the season was not considered to be in jeopardy -- he took the Cyclones to three NCAA Tournament appearances and twice led them to Big 12 tournament titles -- but being historically bad likely sealed his fate. The Cyclones became the first team to go winless in league play since TCU in 2013-14, and their 18 consecutive losses set a program record. It also capped the worst two-year stretch for the program since 1989-1991.

Iowa State athletic director Jamie Pollard did not comment on the firing, but Iowa State announced he met with Prohm on Monday night to deliver the news. Pollard will offer additional comments on the firing on Tuesday.

Fair Warning To All

Well, these comments from 001/002 aged well. Damn near won the B1G with one of our best players down. Thank you for the ban hammer here, this dude was only here to bring negative comments. Honest criticism is fine but all he came in here to do was talk shit.

He gets banned and everything has been good on my end. Same for everyone else?

tOSU vs Purdue in Indy, Fri 2-ish pm ET

Looks like possibly another concussion for Kyle Young. I don't expect he will play tomorrow.

He's been sitting out practices to rest his body and now we're talking 3 games in 3 days on top of the head shot.

Just want him back for the NCAAs.

Ugh. When I saw him leave all I could think for most of the game is that I just want him back for March Madness. We're seriously going to need him then.

To that point, there's never a time where I don't want to beat *ichigan. But the last couple games were brutal and I worry about health and the gas tank heading into the tourney. I would be elated to beat *ichigan tomorrow and I'm rooting for that result, but if we don't? Well, I see a hell of a lot of upside to that. We're likely a 2 seed no matter what at this point. This conference is brutal and takes a toll on the body. Just see Young today. Having a fully healthy and rested team would be great (not as good as beating the team up north though).

#4 Illinois at #7 tOSU, Sat 3-6, 4 ET on ESPN

I was actually thinking more about the PG depth. They have enough size to get by if the shots are falling. Liddel/Towns/Young aren't exactly small.
You forgot the biggest man on the team… Key. Also there is Diallo but I think we might never see him play. With regard to PG's, we currently have Walker and, in a pinch, Washington. There is also Meechie but I am not sure if I want him playing at the end of the game when it is crunch time. The only PG we have that I want to see at crunch time is Walker.

Isaiah Wilson (OT Tennessee Titans)

That's what you call depreciation.

Isaiah Wilson signed a 4 year, $11,568,389 contract with the Tennessee Titans, including a $5,973,376 signing bonus, $11,357,982 guaranteed, and an average annual salary of $2,892,097.

Yeah, swapping 7th round picks is a "wash". Tennessee is just unloading the remaining 3 years of his guaranteed contract.
