Mike G made the list. From article:

4. Mike Gesell, Iowa Hawkeyes - Soon-to-be junior point guard Mike Gesell has a shot to see his improve play this coming year. As a freshman, Gesell's efficiency numbers were more than average, but in his sophomore season he saw those numbers dip quite a bit. Now, with Roy Devyn Marble gone and the Hawkeyes going over a makeover, Gesell has a chance to take the reigns and take a dramatic leap into arguably becoming the best Hawkeye on the floor.

If you're going to pick a player from Iowa, I'd pick Uthoff over Gesell. But I do think that MG can flourish playing some 2 next season. It could be interesting having MG, TD and PJ rotating at guard. They can all get to the rack; though MG is the less quick of those 3, in my estimation.
