To say the Hawkeyes’ head coach was tense would be an understatement. McCollum’s iconic white-collared shirt was crinkled on its sides, thanks to his hands furiously gripping his hips in distress. “Oh, a lot of things,” Alvaro Folguieras said through a chuckle when asked what McCollum’s halftime message was. As his players transitioned down the court, the head coach would follow stride-by-stride on the sideline as if he drew himself in their next set. While his players celebrated, chest-bumping and high fiving, the head coach slowly untied his tie, neatly folding it in his hands.
