Show Notes
Bennett Stirtz and coach Ben McCollum revolutionized Iowa basketball in their inaugural season together, leading the Hawkeyes to their deepest NCAA Tournament run since 1987. Stirtz, a Division II standout, earned Missouri Valley Conference Player of the Year honors at Drake before joining McCollum at Iowa. Together, they snapped a two-year tournament drought and secured a spot in the Elite Eight. Stirtzs leadership and consistent performance earned him All-Big Ten and All-South Region accolades. McCollums success in building a deep-run threat without Stirtzs caliber sets a blueprint for future recruits seeking elite coaching and big stages.
