The Big Ten Men's Basketball Media Days signal that the start of the college basketball season is right around the corner.
For Iowa Men's Basketball, it is a transition period with new Head Coach Ben McCollum taking over for long-time Head Coach Fran McCaffery.
McCollum is attempting to reinvigorate a dormant Hawkeye fan base and prepare the new-look Hawkeye squad for next season.
During Big Ten Media Days in Chicago, McCollum addressed the status of the program and his efforts in the community to drum up support for it.
During his nearly 30-minute interview during Media Days (posted by "247Sports"), McCollum was asked multiple different questions, but three topics stood out from the rest.
