It says here that Eric Gordon wants to play some Point at IU. That'd be great if he can do it well. Armon Bassett problem in the games he was our starter was merely over-penetrating in the lane and then having nowhere to get the ball, except to force up an off-balance shot. It seems a common problem for freshmen. If Bassett has learned his lesson, I don't imagine that he'll get dislodged, but Gordon might be able to bump fellow frosh Jordan Crawford down to third in the rotation (like Suhr). If Gordon wants to demonstrate a propensity for passing, that's fine with me, as long as he doesn't pass up his opportunities.

Tyler Smith has left Iowa, destination unknown. Todd Lickliter's job just got a lot harder. Welcome to last place, Hawkeyes!
