MEN'S BB: Hawkeye Win in Europe; Defeat Basket Ferentino

By looking at the boxscore, it appears Jarryd Cole had his way a couple of days ago against Basket Ferentino. The Hawkeyes didn't shoot the ball particularly well from behind the arc, but the guys did well cleaning up the boards.

BOX SCORE
Score by period      1st    2nd     3rd     4th     Total
Iowa Hawkeyes         27     13      24      14        78
Basket Ferentino      12     19      16      11        58

Next up, is the Greece Senior team, not to be confused with this Greek team of Seniors.

MEN'S BB: Video on the Europe Trip and Player Shortage

Good little video clip here. Cool to see Justin Johnson come back to help out, as well.

MEN'S BB: Don't Be Surprised if Greg Heiar Ends Up w Larry Eustachy

Eustachy looking to spread the recruiting love, as well.

First, it was news that Chipola forward, Torye Pelham was headed to S. Mississippi.
Then yesterday, on the final day of the spring signing period, Chipola forward, Gary Flowers signs with S. Mississippi.

Scott Dochterman hinted at this last month, and with the Flowers commit, it seems imminent that Chipola Head Coach, Greg Heiar will be coaching with Eustachy next season.

Interesting.

MEN'S BB: Matt Gatens is Iowa Freshman of the Year

Per the Daily Iowan.

In other news, ice is cold and raccoons look like little thieves.

MEN'S BB: PG transfer from Oregon, Makes Room for Malcolm Armstead

Alright then... looks like the commit to Oregon was a bit premature, but when it was all said and done Armstead will likely be a Duck.

PG Kamyron Brown is transferring.

MEN'S BB: Iowa Basketball Will Be Better Than You Think

Honestly... the Starting Five isn't half bad

Tucker
Bawinkle
Gatens
Fuller
Cole

The Hawkeyes are going to be in trouble in the depth dept, but if any of the incoming recruits can give Iowa good minutes, this team isn't as bad as some people want to make it out to be.

Also, Brommer can only get better. Cougill suddenly went from one of the better centers in the nation (holding his own against the nation's best on the AAU circuit last summer) to "fans" saying he's not Big Ten material. Gatens is going to be better (All-Big Ten better) and we didn't get to see all that Tucker can do on the offensive side of the ball (he'll surprise EVERYONE next season). Cole might be 100% now (you saw what he could do when he was).

In-depth breakdown of next year's team in the next few months...

MEN'S BB: OK, Armstead not heading to Oregon - yet

First he's going to Oregon.

In other point guard news, Malcolm Armstead of Chipola (Fla.) Junior College signed with Oregon.

“Yes,” Chipola coach Greg Heiar said in a text.

Then he's not. Or is he?

Armstead's recruitment has been one of the weirdest developments I have seen in a long time. From at once being a silent verbal to Iowa, to signing with St Johns, to signing with Seton Hall, to signing with Oregon, to who the hell knows?

Crazy.

MEN'S BB: Jeff Peterson Finds a Home at Arkansas

Former starting point guard for the Iowa Hawkeyes, Jeff Peterson, is headed to Arkansas.

Interesting move by Peterson considering the Razorbacks already have Courtney Fortson on the team (proven stud) and Julysses Nobles committed (future stud). If Jeff is transferring for increased playing time, it's not happening at Arkansas, that's for sure.
