When Iowa basketball coach Tom Davis got the commitment from Kenyon Murray out of Battle Creek High School at the beginning of the 1990's he knew he was getting another piece to the helter skelter man to man press that forced opponent turnovers right and left. Davis got a lot more than he bargained for. Murray posted career averages of 10 points and nearly 5 rebounds. He was a 46% shooter and a demon on defense. 200 career steals including a single game record of 9. Kenyon loved Iowa, the university and the state, so much that he put down roots and started a family with wife Michelle that produced identical twins in Keegan and Kris. They've been producing ever since. The Fight for Iowa podcast welcomes Kenyon Murray to the microphone!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
