But, Hawkeye coach Steve Alford says they haven’t nailed down a permanent place in the starting lineup just yet.He says they’ve earned a closer look after handling the pressure in a must-win situation. Alford says their playing time will depend on the situation, but he says it’s encouraging to know he’s got a bench he can use.The win was big as it gave the depleted Hawkeyes a chance to finish about .500, and Alford says that’s important. Iowa faces Indiana Saturday in Bloomington.
