The Hawkeyes limped down the stretch last season, finishing 17-16 (7-13 Big Ten), and fell well short of the threshold to make the "Big Dance."
After another subpar season, Iowa cleaned house and brought in former Drake Bulldogs Men's Basketball Coach Ben McCollum to revive the program.
McCollum got to work immediately, filling his staff and the roster for next season. Most of his staff and players followed him from Drake, and they have been diligently preparing for next season.
During the offseason, the Hawkeyes learned their upcoming conference schedule, and it appears to be challenging.
