03/15/2010 - Iowa City, IA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The University of Iowa has scheduled a Monday news conference to discuss the future of the men's basketball program amid speculation about the job security of head coach Todd Lickliter.
KCRG-TV has reported that Lickliter met with Iowa athletic director Gary Barta on Monday morning and that neither man would comment after the brief meeting.
Lickliter has compiled a record of 38-58 in three seasons with Iowa, including a dismal mark of 10-22 in 2009-10. The Hawkeyes were just 4-14 in the Big Ten and lost to Michigan in the first round of the conference tournament.
The 10 wins this season marked the fewest for the program since a 10-16 mark in 1974-75.
Lickliter took over at Iowa in April 2007 after six seasons as head coach at Butler. He led his alma mater to a record of 131-61 with four postseason appearances, including trips to the Sweet 16 of the NCAA Tournament in 2003 and 2007.

El Duque expected to throw Tuesday
PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. -- New York Mets pitcher Orlando Hernandez, sidelined at spring training because of arthritis in his neck, is expected to resume throwing on Tuesday.
Hernandez received a cortisone shot Thursday after leaving camp and returning to New York to have his neck examined. The 41-year-old right-hander is penciled in as the team's No. 2 starter behind Tom Glavine.
El Duque's health is a major issue for the Mets, who won the NL East in 2007 and came within one victory of the World Series. Their aging and unsettled rotation is a big question mark this year.
MySportsbook.com has the Mets as -110 favorites to repeat as NL East champions odds.
Hernandez went 11-11 with a 4.66 ERA last season, including 9-7 with a 4.09 ERA in 20 starts after the Mets acquired him from Arizona in late May. But he missed the playoffs because of a torn calf muscle.
New York already is without Pedro Martinez, out until at least midseason following rotator cuff surgery. Among those competing for starting jobs are prospects Mike Pelfrey, Philip Humber and Jason Vargas, plus veterans Chan Ho Park, Jorge Sosa and Aaron Sele.
Notes: Mets manager Willie Randolph is excited about two new utility players he could have on his bench: Damion Easley and David Newhan. ''Their value is really all over the place,'' Randolph said. Easley can play anywhere in the infield and could be used as an emergency outfielder, though Randolph said he would prefer to keep the veteran in the infield. Newhan, meanwhile, can play second base, third or any outfield position for the Mets. ''I love versatility,'' Randolph said. ''I love guys that can give me options when I need them to step in.''
