AMES, Iowa (AP) Iowa State says it has hired Murray State's Steve Prohm as its new men's basketball coach.
Cyclones athletic director Jamie Pollard confirmed Monday that Prohm will replace Fred Hoiberg, who left last week after five seasons to take over the Chicago Bulls.
The 40-year-old Prohm was 104-29 in four years at Murray State. He led the Racers to 29 wins, including a 16-0 regular-season mark in the Ohio Valley Conference in 2014-15.
Prohm takes over an Iowa State team that could open next season ranked in the top 10.
