IOWA RUMORS & GOSSIP

Enter, former Iowa Hawkeye Cody Sokol.

Iowa Hawkeyes Warm Up With Shirts Honoring Coach’s Son
The Iowa Hawkeyes displayed some touching team unity while warming up with shirts honoring their coach's son.
Have these Hawkeyes underachieved? The answer isn’t easy
After Iowa’s 2012-13 basketball season had ended in the championship game of the NIT at Madison Square Garden in New York City, this is what I wrote looking ahead to this year:
“Anything less than the program’s first NCAA Tournament bid since 2006 will be considered an underachieving season.”
Now, 31 games into the 2013-14 season, those words have a hollow feel to them...

Fran McCaffery on Hawkeyes Tourney profile: “I’m not Joe Lunardi”
Fran McCaffery and his #24 Iowa Hawkeyes are likely in the NCAA Tournament. They will fall out of the polls, deservedly, after losing a Senior Night game in which they were favored by 12. But I still think they’re good to go dancing even if they get knocked out of the first round of the Big Ten Tournament this week.
The Hawkeyes lost in dramatic fashion to an Illinois Fighting...

Iowa’s McCabe throws down MSU’s Trice, gets T’d up
Iowa Hawkeyes’ Zach McCabe took the Big Ten physical play a bit too far when he tossed Michigan State’s Travis Trice to the ground. McCabe was given a technical foul and deservedly so, no reason to lock up an opponent’s arm and throw him to the ground.

Why didn’t Melsahn Basabe take the floor?
Iowa senior forward Melsahn Basabe, who averages 6.3 rebounds per game, did not play in Tuesday’s loss to Minnesota because of a stomach illness.
That was a surprise to Hawkeye coach Fran McCaffery, who watched Basabe go through warmup drills.

Iowa's McCaffery tells players to get off Twitter
Iowa coach Fran McCaffery has instructed the Hawkeyes to shut down their Twitter accounts for the rest of the season after senior Zach McCabe exchanged barbs with detractors on the social media service.

Indiana-Iowa basketball game postponed due to Assembly Hall roof issues
The Indiana Hoosiers-Iowa Hawkeyes basketball game was postponed on Tuesday night because of some roof issues at Assembly Hall. More specifically a piece of tin fell from the roof into the stands. Looks like those $40 Million renovations can’t come soon enough. Somewhere Tom Crean is screaming at the roof “you ruined our program!!!!!”
