Less than 24 hours after dismissing head coach Fran McCaffery as their head coach, the Iowa Hawkeyes are losing yet another prominent part of their basketball program.
In a social media post on Saturday, star forward Owen Freeman announced that he’s entering the transfer portal:

“I am forever grateful for my two years in lowa City,” Freeman wrote. “Being able to play in the Black and Gold has been nothing but amazing. lowa City will always hold a place in my heart. With that being said, and with the recent coaching change, my family and I have decided it would be in my best interests to enter the transfer portal.”
The 20-year-old went on to thank his teammates, coaches, and specifically McCaffery for taking a chance on him. McCaffery was let go on Friday after 15 seasons as the Hawkeyes’ head coach.
