With a light basketball schedule this week, Brion goes through a variety of Iowa history in this podcast.


First, he looks at Iowa's 2-game history against upcoming opponent, Maryland-Baltimore County (UMBC).


Next, he explains how Iowa women's basketball team hosted the inaugural Big Ten tournament in December of 1974 for 5 of the 8 teams that had women's basketball programs at the time.

He also explains how Jess Settles, George Kittle and Henry Krieger Coble are connected through their grandmother, Lucky Krieger, and why she and her husband Bud should be in the Iowa Athletics Hall of Fame.


Player Profiles this week are with Jess Settles and Jim Speed, who unfortunately lost his eyesight and was never able to play basketball at Iowa.
