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.
