Iowa basketball transfer portal guard target commits to Big 12 foe

•Yahoo Sports

Iowa had their eyes on Finley Bizjack to provide guard help via the transfer portal, but he has since committed to a Big 12 foe.

The transfer portal can give, and the transfer portal can take away. In this case, the transfer portal is taking away from the Iowa Hawkeyes. They aren't losing anyone from their roster, but they are losing out on a highly talented guard who was available in the portal.

Finley Bizjack, the former Butler Bulldog, entered the transfer portal this year. He commanded a lot of attention with his play during the 2025-26 college basketball season and was a hot commodity. The Hawkeyes, who are seeing Bennett Stirtz depart, were viewed as potential suitors.

That is no longer the case. Finley Bizjack has committed to the West Virginia Mountaineers out of the Big 12. NEWS: Butler transfer guard Finley Bizjack has committed to West Virginia, his agency @GSLSportsGroup told @On3 .

The 6-4 junior averaged 17. 1 PPG this season and earned All-Big East Third Team honors. https://t.
