Although Iowa basketball players had Wednesday off, Hawkeye coaches were on the job.

Coach Todd Lickliter went recruiting, searching for the right fit to fill the one remaining scholarship that Iowa has for the spring signing period.

Lickliter remains uncertain just what type of player — a point guard or a dominating big man — the Hawkeyes will sign when April rolls around.

“The funny thing is there are days when I think we’ll go in one direction and days when I think we’ll go in the other,” Lickliter said. “We’re recruiting both, looking for the best we can find at both positions. … I anticipate we’ll offer (a scholarship to players) at both positions and see what we end up with. We could use some help in both areas. We’ll see how it goes. If we get a point guard, that would be a good thing. If we get an inside presence, that would be a good thing, too.”
