Fran McCaffery was asked why his seventh Iowa Hawkeyes team seems to be gaining momentum as March arrives when previous versions (notably last year’s) were heading in the opposite direction.
“I think we have more shooters,” was his simple answer. “We had a lot of guys that could play (in past years). But I think this team’s got a few more weapons from 3-point range.”
Baer was chief among those Thursday, making 4-of-5 from the arc to tie a career-high.
Guards Peter Jok and Jordan Bohannon have each made 71 3s this season, the first time the Hawkeyes have ever seen two players exceed 70 in the same season.
Iowa has made 25-of-45 from 3-point range in its past two road upsets.
