My wife Margaret would like to know where you live.
He loves all his teammates except for a few??
i think it was a joke
I hope so. My first reaction was that it was a joke.
Why? You can't afford champagne with the millions you make??
yeah, strange think to say at this point. I believe a few teammates feel the same way. Good luck but as a Hawkeye fan I am glad you are moving on. Maybe take your Dad too.
Really doubt she cares, according to her us pig farmers don't have a clue on how the game is played and what value he truly brought to the team.
Could be a joke, but my first thought was of CJ Fredrick.
It's not uncommon for people to tuck criticism into some alleged humor and then say that they were just joking if questioned on their intent.
Maybe kind of an ill-timed and ill-placed joke if so. I would also generally expect someone in his fifth year of college to use more capitalization, but that's just me ... I get it with the kids and their informality on the internets.
Either way, I've seen more polished pieces put out by other Iowa athletes.
That said, I wish Patrick nothing but the best, and I am thankful for his efforts in a Hawkeye uniform.
I wish him well. Young man has been thru a lot as a cancer survivor.
I'm sure he'll be thanking the fans for all their support in another post here shortly...........................
And to the fans, we read all of your negative comments online during family time.
there will never be another 22 ever again
correct.
#22 will never be worn again. When you think about #22, be sure to look to the rafters of Carver.
Last night's game might have been one of the best games he had this year, if only he had been more consistent Iowa might have won more games.
I'm guessing that C.J. Fredrick was probably one Iowa player that he was referring as one of the few.

It was a joke people... smh.
No thanking of us the fans, I guess it's mutual
yep, he played well. Aggressive dunk over a 7 footer was awesome. Wish we'd seen more of this over the years.
He will be reporting to Beth as Iowa assistant basketball coach soon...
I wish him well and thank him for his dedication. It’s not easy playing for your Dad in your home town but I think he handled it well. Much respect.

Didn't become the player most thought he could be. A lot of issues on and off the court, mentally and physically. I will wish him well, but he did not impress. Even his 1,000 points isn't impressive. You take 250 points per year over 4 years, divided by 35 games per year, comes out to 7 pt's per game. Pretty doable for any player that gets a reasonable amount of playing time each season. Just accumulation of mediocre stats, although he did sit out a lot of games over 4 years. You have to wonder what kind of effect his and Connor playing time had on recruiting the past 5 years. I would imagine there were a few good players that knew that might cut into their playing time and decided to go elsewhere.
Curious what he decides to do next year after basketball??

He's a cancer survivor. Nuff said. Good luck young man.
yes...a while back on their podcast she scolded Hawkeye fans for not understanding why Conner was getting so much playing time and all that he did for the team while he was on the court
Where else are we going to find guys that shoot 33% from the field, 28% from three and 58% from the line and can’t defend or create?!? That team with Luka could have been in a final four with just average guards.
I’ll give him a pass on this. Having had thyroid cancer and a full thyroidectomy, it’s not that big of a deal compared to other cancers or diseases.
To me it was always his lack of effort.
