Among the questions that Todd Lickliter wasn’t touching Monday during his 35-minute teleconference with Hawkeye beat reporters was whether the Iowa program would be better or worse without Tony Freeman on the team next season.
It’s an interesting question.
On one hand, Freeman’s transfer takes an experienced guard out of the program and removes one of the […]
Released from his scholarship at Iowa, Tony Freeman isn’t certain where the next chapter in his basketball story will be written.
A competitor who dispised losing as much as any player who put on a Hawkeye uniform last season, Freeman is a little uncomfortable not knowing what the future might bring and in some respects, he feels he was pushed out […]

The road test […]

Iowa’s latest men’s basketball commitment continues a trend.
Devan Bawinkel of Highland Community College adds to the Hawkeyes’ collection of mid-sized shooters who bring a strong shooting touch and plenty of versatility to the mix. Those are the type of players who thrived in the system Iowa coaches used when they were at Butler and it […]
Iowa drew one of the most experienced tournament teams for its opening-round match in this year’s NCAA women’s basketball tournament.

The Iowa women’s basketball team is expected to receive an NCAA berth when pairings are announced Monday night. Although Iowa ended up in the WNIT as a 20-9 team three years ago, Iowa’s 21-10 record is expected to be more than enough to earn the Hawkeyes a berth.
The difference? Iowa went 8-8 in the Big […]
The season came to a merciful end for the Iowa men’s basketball team on Thursday in the opening round of the Big Ten tourney.
