IOWA could field one of the Big Ten’s biggest lineups this season.
7 Hawkeyes stand 6’8” or taller, including 7’3” Andrew McKeever, 6’9” Cam Manyawu and 6’8” wings Cooper Koch, Trey Thompson and Ethan Harris.
For context, USC (6’7.5”), Illinois (6’7.4”) and Wisconsin (6’7.1”) were the conference’s tallest teams last season, per KenPom.
Iowa has multiple potential 5-man combinations averaging taller than all three.
Today’s exhibition should provide an early indication of how often McCollum can play Manyawu and McKeever together without sacrificing spacing or perimeter defense.
