Former Iowa shooting guard Isaiah Moss has found a new home.

Moss, a Chicago native, tweeted his commitment to Arkansas on Wednesday.

“I want to take the time to thank all of the coaches that have taken the time to show interest in me,” Moss wrote. “I truly feel blessed to have experienced this whole process… With that being said, I have decided to continue my athletic and educational pursuits at the University of Arkansas, and I look forward my future as a Razorback!”

Moss started all 35 games for Iowa in 2018-19, scoring 9.2 points per game with 2.9 rebounds and 1.8 assists. He also proved to be a threat from beyond the arc, shooting 42.1 percent from 3-point range.

Moss will be eligible right away, and he should contribute with the Razorbacks losing top-scorer Daniel Gafford.

Arkansas finished last season with an 18-16 record, reaching the second round of the NIT after toppling Providence, 84-72.

Moss, Nicholas Baer, Tyler Cook, and Maishe Dailey – four contributors from last season – have now departed the program.
