Iowa State MBB: 2-22 to Sweet 16 in a Year
- Thread starter KingWard
- Start date
I guess the IA St. coach eschewed the 8-10 year plan thing, favoring a slightly quicker option.
And this guy LOST the top three scorers off of last year's team - by departure to elsewhere.
The Cyclones are enjoying a period of relative sports program "supremacy" over and above their friends over in Ames.
Um, Iowa State University is located in Ames. If by friends you mean the University of Iowa, the Hawkeye campus is in Iowa City.
The matchup between ISU and Miami next week (Sweet 16) will highlight 2 big turnarounds from last year. ISU 2-22, Miami 10-17.
First year coach too, and the guy he replaced? Steve Prohm who coached at Murray State before going to Iowa State. He had a very impressive 104-29 record at Murray State.
Iowa and ISU are in the middle of corn country but yet field competitive football and basketball teams. If they can do it why can't we?
