  • After the sudden announcement of Lisa Bluder's retirement, Iowa promptly hired longtime associate head coach Jan Jensen to take over the program. Bluder took the Hawkeyes to new heights. With the help of generational talent Caitlin Clark, Iowa went to back-to-back national title games. She won more than 500 games, five Big Ten Tournament titles, and two regular season titles.
    Jan is being introduced at 1 p.m. on Wednesday.

    What a great speech and Q & A! Humility, diplomacy, and family! All of the Iowa women speak the same language! Her readiness is like that of Moses passing the baton to Joshua! He was ready; she is ready! I’m rooting for this woman!!

      @anthonytaylor7928 She has the most wins for Big Ten. A pretty stout resume, and she is available. There are several who qualify, but they are not available, nor do they have the history with CC.

      I'm not surprised and I say good for her. She's coached 40 years and wants to enjoy some time with her family. Ride off into the sunset on top and give somebody else the reins.
