Apologies if I missed this somewhere, but sounds like he'll be announced as a signing soon. Class of 2025, 6'7" shooting guard from Oklahoma who committed to Drake.

I know he looks whiny, but the guy is actually super engaging. I still listen to Dan Barreiro from my years living in Minneapolis (top radio guy there), and Pitino still comes on the show from time to time despite being fired over 4 years ago. Think about that compared to Fran's approach...

…guess we’ll see…

Seems like Iowa is considered a solid 6 seed right now. If the BT tourney goes chalk, other than Iowa, and Iowa wins out, it would include wins against Michigan State (NET 21), Ohio State (18), UCLA (6) and USC (5). That would seem to easily make them a 5 seed. Does it even put a #4 seed in...

I was listening to some podcast on a jog recently, and I'm pretty sure Dochterman threw out Becky Hammon as a fun, random candidate for the next Iowa coach. I think it was more of a conversation starter than anything - but nothing more was said about it. I started spitballin' on a text thread...

Jesus - it never ends with this position at Iowa. Couldn't we have like one whole fun week? Having surgery, hopes to be ready by June.

I'm not obsessing over it, but it might be fun to watch this play out week to week. We all know the margin for error is pretty slim most weeks with Iowa, so a loss could happen at any point. That said, this is looking like one of Kirk's teams that can go on a run and stack some wins...

See this one that leaked out today? I saw this in a Keith Murphy tweet.... In the federal lawsuit filed on behalf of 26 former and current student-athletes mostly from Iowa and Iowa State against the Iowa DCI for allegedly violating constitutional rights by warrantless searches, here's an email...

Anyone know how this works? I think you can buy tickets now for Albany or Portland, but obviously you don't know who the teams are yet. Theoretically you could buy them Sunday night because you know which of those two regions Iowa would fall into. But you still wouldn't know if Iowa would be...

At first I thought the debate was whether she was the greatest sports star ever at the University of Iowa. And then I thought maybe instead the debate was whether she was the greatest sports star ever from the state of Iowa. Now I wonder if we'll look back one day and realize she is the...

Interesting carousel...

Any chance this third candidate for OC - the mystery one - could be Jerry Kill? I'm only trying to entertain myself here, but... - Kill abruptly stepped down a couple weeks ago and said he won't be a "head coach" again - He and Kirk are buddies, and it's been clear Kirk has a ton of respect for...

A friend pointed out to me that Iowa is one of nine teams listed still with odds to win the national title. So I assume there is some kind of path to the playoffs not involving natural disasters, plane crashes or pandemics. It's November 29th and we're still talking about a path to the...

Iowa probably comes in at what, #19 tomorrow? I haven't broken down schedules of other teams, but I'm guessing there are likely a few losses in the final two weeks among teams ranked in the teens. So Iowa possibly inches up if they win the next two weeks. Maybe they are 16 or 17 a week from...

People have been throwing out a lot of nicknames for Hill - I texted these to buddies, too. What are we gonna land on? Dump Truck Skid Loader Samoan Skid Loader Throwin' Samoan Big Dumper The Mormon Mauler The Slingin' Samoan Round Mound of Checkdown Pork Chop Meatloaf Bacon Pill Samoan...

....according to reports. Noteworthy, also, in that the AD is a woman (Jen Cohen). If I'm Beth Goetz, or her agent, I'd let it be known that I am interested in chatting.

I'm out here in the Pac-NW and Washington's Board of Regents just scheduled an emergency meeting for 9 pm tonight. Seems like it is happening. Or at least they are meeting to make a decision.

Not attending media days now. Not sure who else is involved.

Any chance?

I hereby propose that the "Iowa Women's Basketball" forum be renamed to "Basketball." And that the current "Basketball" forum be renamed to "Iowa Men's Basketball." If nothing else, please consolidate both to "Basketball." I keep looking for posts on Bluder's team, and they are scattered...
