Lol that's fine. Just telling you what's listed.Umm…I have a hard time believing that the weight is accurate.

Patrick has great talent. That's the unfortunate part. I think he was a 4 star out of high school. 6'8", decently athletic, decent outside shot.
His problem was his inability to mix it up. Always shied away from contact. Look at his fouls per game numbers... Way too low. And on offense, he would fade away or try a runner instead of initiating contact, drawing the foul, and trying to finish.
I also just don't think he was a smart player. Stark contrast to Connor who always seemed to know where to be and how to elevate teammates. Patrick just seemed in his own world a lot of the time like he had no focus.
I can kinda see it. Patrick did put on weight during his career, it just didn't help any aspect of his game haha
Standard Falbos diet will do that to even ultra-marathon runners.I can kinda see it. Patrick did put on weight during his career, it just didn't help any aspect of his game haha
I will miss his unique ability to dribble into no man's land and pick the ball up, previously known as the "Eric May Special."
He did manage to create his own move, "The Patrick Special." In this move, when an opposing player shoots, you turn around and stare at the rim slack jawed while another player on the opposing team gets the ball and puts it back in for points. The variation of this move is to not turn around at all, just sprint to the offensive end of the court and turn around bewildered.

I think it was Dakich, and he came out and made 5 or 6 threes in a row. Doesn't change the narrative though.....
I highly suspect Patrick will not be coming back. I really think he wants his last year to be with a fresh start not playing for his dad and under the scrutiny of the IA fan base.
Edit: And I couldn't be happier for the young man. It's the right thing for Patrick above all else. The fact that IA basketball benefits too is an added benefit.

Those camps are fun, and great exposure. My youngest got invited to Mullens futurestars camps every year. The summer before his junior year he played against Horner and Bruner going into their senior years in high school. Both had already committed to Iowa.
Can verify Middleton is skinny. Osu team was at hotel I stayed in last night. Rode elevator with him. He is skinny.
I’m glad your treatment went well, but I can think of several cancers I would choose over thyroid if I’m a 15 y/o with a huge future ahead and high expectations from everyone. Removal of the thyroid isn’t easy treatment. My opinion is the physical and psychological effects had a significant impact on his career. I agree it’s time for him to move on. I wish him well.
It doesn’t seem like he ever wanted to be out there this year. I think with his brother gone it kind of sucked any joy he had for the game from him. Probably played this for his father. I wish him well on his next chapter in life. He’s a good kid who has been through a lot.
I think Patrick's reluctance to play physical has much more to do with the area between his ears than the strength of his body. He can throw a long pass better than anyone on the team, but he defends and rebounds only if there is no physical contact involved.
I think he learned to play that way when he was smaller and now that's just who he is.

He had such nice hair.
Perkins would definitely be the 3rd off of the bench for my local club team.
But if he played like his normal self I’d have zero problem telling him he’s sitting for the whole running clock 2nd half.
I want to win!
Patrick certainly regressed in his early years at the head of the press he would get a deflection for a dunk every couple of games
I dont think he has had a steal from the press in 2 years since

Trent Condon on KXNO was trying to say he heard he was possibly going to Duke. Ken then said as what a ball boy? LoL. I laughed at that idea and there is no way it’s happening. If so, sit on the bench, practice player.
He has never gotten many steals at front of press. What u saw this year is his career. Same player for 5 years but his 3pt shooting
went from mediocre to bad.
ISU 6'1" point guard Lipsey averages more rebounds than Pat who is 6'9" and nearly 24 years old.

I was assured by some of our boards true fans that former players rave about how well pmac plays.
Not familiar with that camp. Is that in Iowa? He went to one at Liberty Mo (William Jewell college was hosting), and then lnvites to Drake two years, and Iowa City one year, for Future Stars camp.
Dasonte Bowen played 335 minutes in 25 games, PMac played 668 minutes in 29 games. Bowen had a total of 15 offensive rebounds and PMac had 5 offensive rebounds… 5 f**king offensive rebounds the whole season for a 5th year dude who is 6’9”. Oh, and Patrick shot 29.6% from three on 71 attempts, over 2.4 3PA per game, and averaged 23.1 minutes per game. Nothing more really needs to be said as it speaks for itself.
Yeah, not a chance in hell.
He won't have any good high major interest.
It's either come back to Iowa, go to a mid major or a really bad high major or be done.
On a side note…Patrick almost set a pick against OSU. All set, perfect position…bailed a fraction of a second before contact. 😞
Don’t think I’ve seen him set one through contact. Seriously.
To be fair he averaged more rebounds than any Hawk besides Standfort and Freeman.
Those five boards must have come out to where Patrick was standing, because he didn't go after them near the basket.
For the season?
He was 5th…behind the 2 you named and Perkins and Krikke.
Dembele was right behind Patrick in less than half the minutes
Patrick was 8th on the team in offensive rebounds. Most of Patrick’s rebounds came on missed opponent free throws.
