IOWA CITY, Iowa – Time is precious to Ben McCollum right now as he begins his new job as the Iowa men’s basketball coach.

He has a roster to build almost from scratch, and a family to move from Waukee to Iowa City, so we appreciate that he took some time on Wednesday to make a guest appearance on the Hawk Fanatic radio show and podcast, the first of what we hope is many.

McCollum addressed multiple topics during his 15-minute interview, which starts at the beginning of the 90-minute podcast.
