Victoria Sun Post staff reporter They're excited about facing UK LEXINGTON, Ky. - There's nothing flashy about the No. 20 Iowa men's basketball team. Four of five starters, nine players in all, are from the Hawkeye state where Dear Abby, Donna Reed and Harry Reasoner were born. The team's resident enforcer, 6-foot-7 Greg Brunner, grew up in rural Charles City, Iowa, and takes pride in leaving games with fresh wounds. "That's just my style of basketball," said the senior, who leads the team in scoring (16.0 points per game) and is averaging 7.5 rebounds per game. "Jeff (Horner) plays that way too; he likes to wrestle around with the big guys. More..click herePlaying Iowa Will be a good experience win or lose. Woo and Thomas may get a kick out of rough-housing with these guys but look out Shag. I almost forgot our secret weapon, Carter, he likes to rough-house too.

Carter is like the way he is because of how he was coached in high school. Too bad Shagari didnt spend a season and a summer with Billy Hicks as his high school coach. There are no fouls called EVER, EVER!! It makes you be tough and go up strong with the ball and protect the ball!!

Tubby may need to think about recruiting from there in the future.
