With the start of college basketball season on the horizon, we’ll be taking a long look at the conference at large as well as Indiana’s roster over the next month. Today, we continue our Big Ten team previews with the Iowa Hawkeyes.
It’s a new era for Iowa basketball. The graduation of four starters means that Fran McCaffery will be tasked with guiding the Hawkeyes through a transition season.
The headlining returnee for McCaffery is senior Peter Jok, who should be in the mix for All-Big Ten first team honors. Jok averaged 16.1 points last season season and shot 40.
