We’re less than a week away from the return of Iowa basketball as the Hawkeyes kick off the season in earnest against SIU-Edwardsville next Friday. Ahead of that, head coach Fran McCaffery had his first weekly media availability yesterday.
Typically, Fran would address the media via a full press conference. However, he was limited this week to a teleconference due to the wrestling team’s full media day at Kroul Farms with a backdrop of snow.... in October. Because why not?
Despite being limited to the phone, there were plenty of interesting nuggets from Fran as usual.
The biggest headline of the day, which we reported in the Hello Jerry mailbag as breaking news yesterday, was that senior PG Jordan Bohannon appears to be giving it a go this season.
