I'm just glad we're not playing in the Family Friends Arena, or whatever that thing is called. |

I'm sure Bob and I will sit down and have some talks soon. That's just something we haven't done yet. |
I'm the head coach at Iowa. My family and I love the Iowa program and the community. We had a record-setting season with a second Big Ten Tournament championship, and I look forward to continued success with this program. |
I've been in it long enough - I can handle all that. We really are focused on what we're doing. This has been a tremendous ride. What this team has accomplished this year has been phenomenal. |

If we're fortunate enough to win [against Ohio State], having five wins against Top 25 teams, that's pretty special. You can't take that away. That bodes well when we look at postseason. It would get us to 5-2 in the league and really try to get us some momentum as we go back out on the road. |
