Levi: Steve came to Iowa State in an impossible situation, having to replace a school legend that rebuilt the program from ashes. Initially, he did essentially exactly what he was asked to do for the first two years: Take this extremely talented roster to the tournament and win some games. After that, the rebuild began. Unfortunately, unprecedented roster discontinuity, some of which he could control and some he couldn’t, was likely the primary reason his tenure at Iowa State didn’t end well.
Austin: The Steve Prohm era to me will be defined by expectations we didn’t live up to.
