Most Iowa fans are disappointed that JoshO hasn't progressed. I definitely have been. I don't know him and I doubt that you know much about him personally either. You do have a "right" to call him names, but I believe only an immature A$$HOLE would call someone a clown without personally knowing him. I suspect I'll miss what you call me when I stop seeing your messages.

I've been reading this thread for only 10 minutes and I definitely know who the clown is.
Whenever people want to talk mess about players they know nothing about, it always reminds of Russ Millard’s career at Iowa.
People were calling him a clown early in his career because he wasn’t the instant star some were predicting him to be.
Then it came out later that he was dealing with some incredibly difficult things off the court and the people who were criticizing him looked like complete idiots.
What kind of warped, overly sensitive brain does one have to have to somehow conflate what I stated as my opinion on Josh O with P Mac's situation?
I feel sorry for you....and I'll refer you back to post #77.
Discussion over on my end...but have at it if you wish.
I do know about him....and I'm confident in the information. Again, in my opinion, he's a clown. My definition of being a "clown" may be different than yours. A clown to me is goofy, funny, screws around....perhaps doesn't take things seriously when he should.
Hope you blocked me....and glad you did.
Homework Assignment #1 for you: Look up the definition of “conflate.” You pretty obviously don’t understand what it means.
Homework Assignment #2: Listen to Patrick and Connor’s podcast. They mention multiple times how they read what people write about them online and the impact it has. Athletes all across the world of sports have mentioned how reading what’s written about them online affects their mental health.
Since you apparently don’t possess the grey matter to understand what I wrote earlier, I’ll break it down for you: nowhere did I “conflate” Patrick and Josh’s situations. What I was pointing out is that in a time when it should be crystal clear that it’s not appropriate to criticize a player when you’re not familiar with the entirety of their situation, here you are criticizing a player you know nothing about. If you’re wondering why people are saying you’re the real clown and an “asshole,” that’s why.
And LOL at the guy who wrote “Stop attacking me” calling others overly sensitive.
Josh has been very useful at times against teams with huge bigs.

You’re definitely showing that you don’t care what I think! 🤣 😂 😆 😝
Is that similar to someone who uses their time and energy to determine that someone who is a bit player who they have never met is a clown? And then spends more time and effort to defend that position? Like that?
This has been the one thing that certain reserves are rarely afforded.
Actually when given time to get into the flow of the game, like he did against Purdue in the BIG Championship game last year, he afforded himself pretty well. Hard to get in to any kind of rhythm when you’re pulled after three or less possessions on the court 95% of the time.
Whether it’s all conditioning or not he and Mulvey should have given more opportunities the first couple years so the game speed slowed a bit for both.
100% agree with ever so slight correction.
Ogundele has been useful everytime he’s been asked to play.
advanced analytics definitively show this
Tell me that Burns Jr for NC State didn't make you think of what JO might have been...
Burns is way more athletic. Maybe Josh’s 98th possible percentile outcome.
I actually thought about Oliver Miller. Josh never entered my mind.
