Here's a half of what they say about the Hawks. From article:
Iowa (8-2)
But Iowa’s defensive rebounding remains a problem. This is despite the fact that Woodbury is a plus defensive rebounder. However, his teammates Aaron White and Melsahn Basabe have lost some effectiveness on the defensive glass over the offseason, so it seems. But the more likely explanation is that Woodbury is simply gobbling up boards that his teammates would previously grab. The net result is that Iowa’s rebounding hasn’t really improved. What the Hawkeyes need is a commitment to the glass. Basabe and White clearly have the ability to rebound better, but until that actually happens, Iowa’s defense will likely hold back what promises to be an above-average offense.
