Before the start of the 2019-20 Iowa BB season, it seemed like wishful thinking to get to March Madness. After losing to DePaul, the NIT seemed to be a stretch. After starting 1-3 in conference play (including a loss to Nebraska), things looked even worse.
Since then, The Hawkeyes have gone 10-4, beaten numerous ranked teams and are a lock for the NCAAs. Their persistence and ability to get back up after a loss has been nothing short of inspiring.
Hoping for 10-10 in conference play before the season would have been mocked by any number of folks on this site. With two more games to go before BT Tournament, Iowa has a chance to go 13-7. Can't say enough about this year's team (the women's team and wrestling team as well). Go Hawks!
