Hats off to Ben for wanting to improve the Hawks schedule. Two neutral site games against Creighton and Alabama. The Izzo model to prepare for the BIG conference and tourney.
Ben improving the schedule
- Thread starter Hawkangler
- Start date
Hoping this is a clear signal that Ben is confident about his team's potential the next couple of years.
He is very sharp on how the system works and scheduling accordingly.
With the expansion of the tourny and the BIG, it is obvious now that in both BB and fb, all that really matters is making the tourny.

Expectations are pretty high after last years run during Ben's first year at the helm. He sure looks to be making great decisions while building for the future. Such a different approach than Fran had. Fan's are hungry to watch a more competitive team. Excited to see what year two brings.
Looked at Bama's roster. Brought in a 6'11" center from Boise State and have a 6'8" PF. The balance of the roster is 6'6" to 67" four star athletes. Several quick guards. Will be a solid top 20 challenge.
Because they are coming off an elite 8, and have one of the best coaches in the country. Fans have to show up this year.
If people get more excited for Robert Morris and SEMO than Alabama they need to check their priorities. And their pulse.
Like paying full price to see the stand ins for a broadway show
I don’t, I haven’t paid to see an Iowa Home game in any Sport for 30+ years.
Got Coach’s Tickets with Fran’s staff, that was always nice.
Iowa still looking to do any non conf tourney like the one we did last year for ole Miss and Grand Canyon games?
It doesn't seem like it as most have been announced by now, looks like we are playing more neutral site games this year(3) instead of playing in a MTE...
