There’s no way around it: Last night’s game against Purdue was a complete and utter disappointment. Iowa looked flat all game, never finding its groove.
The Hawkeyes lost 77-68 and shot just 37.5 percent from the floor. Luka Garza’s offensive production continued, as he scored 26 points and grabbed 12 rebounds. Joe Wieskamp added 10.
I’ll be honest, stock watch isn’t going to be pretty this week. There wasn’t much to be proud of after that beatdown in Carver.
Let’s start with a positive: Garza is now Iowa’s highest scorer in a single season, and that’s something to celebrate.
