IOWA CITY, Iowa – The Iowa basketball team held its annual media day on Wednesday. One of the hot topics of conversation was which of the six newcomers would find their way into a rotation already featuring four returning starters, two more with experience and a pair that red shirted last year.

Hawkeye Head Coach Fran McCaffery said he sought versatility from the fresh faces. They all claimed to offer that and displayed high levels of confidence.
