"I always talked to him about versatility, being able to do those extra things for your team that allows you to stand out at the same time," Roy said. "But you always have to keep yourself focused on what you have to do to win games. If you do that, everything else takes care of itself." Among those "extra things" that allow Roy Devyn to stand out are an average of 3.4 rebounds, 2.7 assists, and 1.1 steals per game. "He tries to get me to be more relentless," Roy Devyn said. "Doing a better job of getting open and doing the little things like getting more steals and rebounds. That has helped me this year a lot because teams are trying to tune in on me on the offensive end, so I try to get to the free throw line, get steals and get open breaks that help you get going." Roy and Roy Devyn have excelled with a soft touch that has posted 3,223 combined points to scoreboards during 235 Hawkeye games. Both refused to shatter in the face of coaching change (Davis replaced George Raveling in 1986, McCaffery replaced Todd Lickliter in 2010). Roy Marble, who played for the University of Iowa men's basketball team from 1985-89, is the only Hawkeye to surpass 2,000 points in a career. As a senior, Marble scored 675 points, for an average of 20.5 points per game.

"We accomplished what we were able to accomplish wearing the black and gold at Iowa. When I did it, it took a team effort. While my son is doing it, it takes a team effort. And we happened to have two great coaches at the same time." Softness. Resistance to shattering. Marble: Roy and Roy Devyn Marble.
