Iowa basketball coach Fran McCaffery told the Big Ten basketball media day gathering in Chicago that a shorter shot clock will not change the way his Hawkeyes play offense but it may change the way some teams play defense. The college shot clock is moving from 35 to 30 seconds beginning this season and McCaffery says more teams may use full court pressure as a result.
Mccaffery says the Hawkeyes won’t look for quicker shots with the 30 second clock. The Hawkeyes debut with an exhibition game against the University of Sioux Falls on October 29th.
