AH-TV: Nicholas Baer shares what was supposed to be a secret with the media
IOWA CITY, Iowa – After having the weekend off, the Iowa men’s basketball team will return to action on Wednesday by hosting the red-hot Wisconsin Badgers.
Iowa has lost two of its last three games, while the Badgers have won eight of their last nine games under interim head coach Greg Gard.
Iowa coach Fran McCaffery and several of his players talked on Monday about the challenge of facing Wisconsin and about where Iowa stands in the Big Ten race with four regular-season games remaining. Freshman forward Nicholas Baer also talked about a players-only meeting that was held on Saturday. Baer called the meeting productive and said it was led by the seniors. The seniors, however, had very little to say about it. In fact, Jarrod Uthoff refused to talk about the meeting, saying "what happens in the lockeroom stays in the lockeroom."
