    Iowa reportedly in contact with Arkansas transfer F Maryam Dauda

    At 6'4" Maryam Dauda would add needed depth at the 4 and 5 spots. But, unless i misunderstand the status of the current roster, aren't all the scholarships committed to current and incoming players?

    uh, quarter century, actually. But point made.

    Bigger B1G Releases Men's Basketball Matchups for '24-25

    Iowa men’s basketball averaged 5,742 fans per game over the course of the 2023-24 season, according to tickets scanned data obtained by The Gazette via a public records request. Iowa women’s basketball nearly doubled that, averaging 10,779 tickets scanned per game in the regular season. That...

    Former shot put world record holder All Feuerbach is Kylie Feuerbach's uncle

    It's the off season for the Iowa women, so here's a bit of trivia just shared with me in an email from a classmate at Iowa a very long time ago. This is a copy and paste from his email: "I just found out from my former fellow teacher at Preston, Iowa, that Kylie Feuerbach of the Iowa...

    What is the future of NCAA women's wrestling?

    The latest story in the CR Gazette today about the outstanding success the champion Iowa women's wrestling team has had makes one wonder about the future of NCAA women's wrestling Apparently there are 3 D-1 women's wrestling teams right now. Are other D-1 universities adding women's wrestling...

    Caitlin's Nike Deal

    Couldn't be happier for CC. No one deserves it more than she does. As a complete aside, how much of a markup on hers and other shoes and products must there be by Nike in order to turn a profit? Clark's $28M is but one of many athletes with whom they have mega-bucks contracts, plus the money...

    Total Bush league

    Couldn't agree with you more! This move it completely wrong. Still ticks me off that Pete Carroll scurried out of USC before he could be punished, and instead became a multi-millionaire with Seattle, which accepted him, warts and all. To a lesser degree, while the Gander staff left behind...

    Boom - Deacon Hill

    Totally agree that Hill played far too much last season without giving a backup playing time, and a chance to win the starting spot. With that said, and Hill fortunately "over the hill", a doff of the cap to how KF handled the transfer announcement. After the final practice, KF commented about...

    Keegan Murray goes off for 32 & 9

    Just watched the Kings bury the Golden State Warriors in an elimination game, 118 to 94. What a treat to watch Keegan Murray be "the man" for Sacramento. 32 points and 9 boards!

    K-State Tuesday Night at CHA

    Since there are 32 NIT teams, and 4 brackets, each with the 1 through 4 seed listed, that almost certainly means 1 plays 8, 2 plays 7, 3 plays 6 and 4 plays 5. So, K State is the 6 seed in the Iowa's bracket since the Hawks are the 3 seed.

    WNBA mock draft

    When she's healthy Molly Davis is a starter, so Caitlin, Kate, Gabby and Molly will all be gone. Obviously, Syd's all-tournament team performance makes her an awesome starter, along with Hannah. Kylie, Taylor and Addison will all have shots at starting--and 4 top notch recruits, 3 with 4 stars...

    WNBA mock draft

    Now she just needs to add "led her team to the 2024 National Title" to her unparalleled list of accomplishments! GO HAWKS!!!!

    Iowa and Iowa State

    ISU is #2 in KenPom Defense rating ... Iowa is #272. While Iowa is #24 in offense efficiency, ISU is #57. That hurts to type, as the Clowns are among my most disliked teams. With his longevity, Fran is indeed Iowa's winningest coach. But before he reached that mark, he became Iowa's...

    Howard fired at Michigan

    Howard had a lot more issues than just having the worst Gander team since the late 1960's. Fun read if you are not a big fan of him or his team...

    NCAA Tournament

    Copied and pasted from the always reliable internet, (but it seems to be accurate): "At Iowa, starting lineup wrestlers Cobe Siebrecht, Nelson Brands, Abe Assad, and Tony Cassioppi all were suspended for the season but none were charged. Seven wrestlers were suspended." 40% of the starting...

    Down goes the B1G #1 tourney seed!

    Brenda Frese and her Terps proved the old adage that it's hard to beat a team 3 times in a season. Maryland 82, tOSU 61. That #1 NCAA seed is now Iowa's for the taking! LET'S GO HAWKS!!!!!

    Amazing night for Clark.....do you think she comes back for one more?

    While agreeing with what has been said, until it is known whether the Hawks win the regular season title (or tie, which is likely if they win out); win the conference tournament, and most importantly, get back to the Final Four, it's my guess that her decision won't be made. As much...

    As Dandy Don said Turn out the lights

    Iowa is 14 - 11 right now. Games at home with WI & Pedo St; 2 games with ILL Annoy; @NW; @MSU. How many of those are W's? Suspect they won't be favored in any other than home vs Pedo State. If that holds true, that's 15 & 16, going into the B1G tournament. Win 2 of those and it's 16 & 15...

    MD thread

    Replay of the loss to them at home. Up 6 at half just like at home. Second half collapse. And we even added technical fouls at the very end. Classy.
