Hawkeyes coach Todd Lickliter says Archie was hurt Saturday and is expected to be sidelined for four to seven weeks.

Archie is a junior college transfer from Vincennes Community College in Indiana. He averaged 6.8 points and six rebounds a game last season and is expected to be a reserve in Iowa's frontcourt.

Iowa opens its season against Texas-San Antonio on Nov. 15.
