He may not get enough chances to break the record this year. He averages less than 2 attempts per game and has gone several games without shooting one. With only three games left, it will be close

I loved Chris Street but am pulling for JoBo!!!!! Get er done!!!
That is a big issue if your PG never goes to the line in almost 3 weeks...

Struggles to attack the hoop and struggles to play D. All is forgiven because he scores points in bunches and has good A/T ratio

Bigger issue is having a 90 percent plus guy that plays almost the entire game never gets there period. Take out the being able to drive inside and create contact, and you should still get to the line to ice games in the closing minutes. Really shows how little this team has played with the lead this year....

Iowa's Jordan Bohannon now has the B1G FT% lead at 90% (63-70), just ahead of Michigan State's Miles Bridges' 89.8% (88-98).

Congrats to Jordan on tieing Chris Street's record (although it is a bittersweet event for many including myself).
And congrats on leading the B1G in FT%. Impressive!

Feb 25 UPDATE:
JoBo was 4-5 vs Northwestern (Feb 25 home game) and the streak ends; he ties the school record of 34 FT's in row.
In the postgame interview, it was clear JoBo missed attempt #35 on purpose.

It would be kind of neat if JBO missed number 34 or 35 on purpose wouldn't it? Having said that I hope he never misses another free throw at Iowa. I think old #40 will understand......
yes sir. i would have been happy with whatever JoBo did.

On intentional free-throw miss, Jordan Bohannon says Chris Street's record "deserves to stay in his name."

Forgot to mention, JoBo pointed to heaven on the free throws on the next possession.
There must be dust in the air. My eyes are watery.

at the 7:30 mark they start talking about Chris' consecutive FT streak and then they show him breaking the record at Duke's Cameron Indoor Stadium.

Jordan Bohannon points to the sky after keeping Chris Street's consecutive free throw record intact. Shared a moment with Patty and Mike Street after the game.

Not a big sports gambler, but got burned on that one. Lost on the shot, and and ultimately lost by.5 on the over under. Not huge money, but would have covered a few bar tabs .
In postgame radio show JoBo said "the record was not meant for me."
Bobby Hansen told JoBo it was an incredibly classy move.

What Jordan has just done will long be remembered. Fittingly moreso than tying or breaking any free throw record.
Well done, young man. You are a Hawkeye.

Fran McCaffery never discussed free throw plans with Bohannon. But adds he thinks what Jordan did “was awesome.”

Very proud of Jordan. Its a great day to be a hawkeye!
That was amazing. I don't really care if he's not the perfect point guard, he's perfect for Iowa.

Congrats on tying the great Chris Street -- classy move by Jordan Bohannon!
Perfectly said.
Sheet, who's perfect? And if you want perfection, who has $100,000 to get that perfect player? And do you really want the FBI knocking on your door? LOL
In tying Chris Street, people will notice that he had the same accomplishment, and Chris Street's record will still be recognized in the future too, and the tie will be a testament to all future Hawkeye athletes on a model to follow in being classy above everything else.

Mike Street on @JordanBo_3's intentional miss: “We’re honored that he thought so much of Christopher to do that. But I told him, ‘Next time, you need to go right on by.’ “
Patty Street says she was touched by it: "Otherwise I wouldn’t have tears in my eyes. What a good kid.”

Jordan Bohannon gets emotional talking about Chris Street, who showed him the impact one player can have on an entire state.

Northwestern coach Chris Collins said he was not aware of the Chris Street FT record, but commends Bohannon for the intentional miss. Collins was a friend of Street’s

Here are highlights of Chris' last game vs Duke, including him setting the FT record of 34 straight.

That tweet was before the miss. The miss dropped him below bridges and finished at 89% (65/73), but that’s OK. In conference games only Jordan is tops at 94% (37/39)
