Most proven track record of those who were interviewed, he gets my vote. Faces an extremely uphill battle, trying to win over fans and players who absolutely adored his predecessor.

Has HC experience. Similar offensive philosophy. Great character. It does suck that we will likely lose TJ this year or next though. He will be someones HC soon.

Show TJ Otzelberger the money, must retain him, it is critical to have him as a recruiter. Do Not let him slip away!!!

Like the tempo, like his previous recruiting, like his record. If he can keep T.J. and even better. Biggest question mark is level of competition.

Seems to value quick hitting offensive sets. Hopefully he can help this team improve on the defensive side and recruit high level hs kids.

Similar style offense and head coaching experience and proven success at a lower level. Hopefully it translates to the high majors.

If he keeps Tj, beats UNI, IOWA, WIns the BIG 12 tournament, Goes to the elite eight, then he was the right hire. Replacing Fred is not going to be easy. He is not Iowa State, not Ames, not the Mayor. Good luck, you'd better beat Colorado and Texas A&M

Biggest requirement was to find a successful coach with similar style of play. Seems to have great character as well!

He can coach teams that run the floor nearly identical to Hoiball (including forgetting that defense is part of the game too), but can he recruit enough to keep up with Kansas? How he builds for 2016-17 will be more important how he performs in 2015-16

I'm on the fence with this hire. We'll see if Coach Prohm can be successful in a top three MBB conference.

Can NOT stand the Chiefs in general but gotta give respect where it’s due. The only thing Mahomes couldn’t overcome so far is a bad o line but give him average receivers and RBs and he’ll give you a SB championship

It has to fair across the board, from Fordham to Alabama. one monthly stipend for everyone, not just scholarship players. There has to be a limit on how many players all schools should abide by. Determine the national budget and every school must contribute.

Compensation has always been tied to market value. These athletes are worth far more than they're being compensated, and that's been the case for over a century. Hence, they've been ripped off. I support salary, salary cap, and education on how to invest it in 401k style accounts.

Compensation changes the entire dynamic of college athletics, and not in a positive way.

They should be students and NOT professional athletes. If they want to get paid they can go pro. Personally, I believe they should cancel all sports in public schools and colleges though I love our Huskers.

Put myself through school in the 70's. They are getting for exchange of their athletic prowess what I had to work and save for. The two summers after high school I drove alfalfa trucks 12 hours a day 7 days a week. EARN IT!

They already live better than most students. Free room and board, tutors, clothing, and actual education cost.
