St. Mary’s transfer center Andrew McKeever commits to Iowa

Iowa finished the 2025-26 season with a 24-13 overall record and a 10-10 mark in conference play. This season was Ben McCollum‘s debut campaign as the Hawkeyes’ head coach.

He led Iowa on an impressive run to the Elite Eight before falling to 3-seed Illinois. After the game, McCollum reflected on his first season at the helm of Iowa.

“This group’s done a lot for the University of Iowa,” McCollum said. “It’s always hard right afterwards because, as a coach, you think about what you could have done better because it’s just the nature of your mind.

“… But again, I think if you ask these guys, they would like a second chance at this to be able to win that game because they probably still feel like they could have. But they did set a foundation for the University of Iowa and hopefully for the future.”

The NCAA Transfer Portal officially opened on April 7 and closes on April 21. The new 15-day window was enacted following a recommendation by the men’s basketball oversight committee. Athletes don’t have to commit to a new school by the April 21 deadline.
