Milan Momcilovic is set to arrive on campus in Kentucky this weekend, and while most fans, experts, and players are excited about his arrival, it appears not everyone is on the same page.
One such individual is former college basketball athlete Jack Gohlke, who appeared to take umbrage to the fact that Momcilovic was committing to Kentucky, and let his feelings be known on Momcilovic’s official confirmation that he was moving to the Wildcats.
In the comment section of the post, however, Gohlke decided to share his feelings, and let’s just say it wasn’t the nicest comment to make on somebody’s special day.
Gohlke’s comment understandably drew the ire of Kentucky fans, with the BBN especially flocking to X to explain the reasons behind why Gohlke was trolling the Lexington outfit’s newest addition.
“Don’t understand why he hates Kentucky so much. It’s the only reason he’s relevant,” one fan commented.
“Shouldn’t give stuff like this attention that’s what he wants,” one fan explained.
“Ryder from paw patrol can go back to sitting at the corner of his small town bar telling people remember when I did this….,” another fan wrote.
“This dude so funny. Trying to make a living off 1 game against Kentucky in march madness. UK MBB really is the goat,” a fan remarked.
“Ha! He will always revel in that night..as he should…but enough is enough!!,” another said.
“Sounds like a jealous ew. He’s never made that much money,” another fan said.
What’s Behind Gohlke’s Comment?
Fans’ agitation behind Jack Gohlke’s comment is not misunderstood. The 26-year-old has been using his platform to troll Kentucky ever since he entered the limelight thanks to a stunning March Madness performance against the team a few years ago.
While at Oakland, Gohlke scored 32 points against the Wildcats, including 10 three-pointers as his team roared to victory against the favorites. Unfortunately for Gohlke, though, that is pretty much the only real highlight of his basketball career.
He now plies his trade in the G-League, where he plays for the Texas Legends, but clearly doesn’t want anyone to forget his link to Kentucky.
