Ames, Iowa — Iowa State athletic director Jamie Pollard released a video statement on the firing of Cyclone basketball coach Steve Prohm.
Pollard fired Prohm Monday night after his sixth season at the helm in which Iowa State finished 2-22 overall and 0-18 in the Big 12.
Prohm led Iowa State to a pair of Big 12 Tournament titles and three trips to the NCAA Tournament. But the program slipped in recent years, posting three losing seasons in the last four years. Pollard says he met with Prohm several times over the past few weeks to discuss the future.
Pollard says he will be looking for the right fit in a new coach.
Pollard expects the search to be swift.
