Jack Gohlke revealed his beautiful, sad message for his Oakland teammates after their heartbreaking March Madness loss

We got just two games from Oakland in 2024 March Madness, but we’ll never forget Jack Gohlke joining the all-time great performances from players who emerge in the men’s NCAA tournament.

He made a tourney record for threes in just two games. He hit a full-court shot during practice. And while he ended up with some NIL deals thanks to his run, the focus is on his teammates, at least when it came to what we heard on the podium after Saturday’s loss to NC State.

Gohlke said he told his teammates — who really wanted to move on to the next round, of course — “the thing I wanted the most, really, was to see everyone at practice on Monday. That’s the thing I’ll miss the most.”

Beautiful, and sad.
