We are back!
The Iowa Hawkeyes (4-0) face a Western Michigan Broncos (1-2) bunch later tonight. They’ve gamed the KenPom system because instead of seeing their rating plummet after a 17-point (!) loss to Division II Saginaw Valley State (!!), they still sit at 317. They’re led by second year coach Clayton Bates, who had been an assistant at WMU for 18 of the prior 20 seasons.
Their win was against a school called Hope. They also lost 90-46 to the Spartans.
Lamar Norman (6’3” guard) is their leading scorer at 17.7 points/game and has filled it up from deep (48% 3P).
