Iowa’s Jordan Bohannon rips Twitter troll: ‘I will never apologize for setting high expectations’
Iowa’s basketball season came to a close Thursday afternoon in an overtime loss to Michigan in the Big Ten Tournament.
It was the end to a disappointing season in Iowa City, as the Hawkeyes finished 14-19. Iowa entered the season with NCAA Tournament hopes, but finished with its worst winning percentage in seven years.
Still, guard Jordan Bohannon was in the mood to hear from critics on Twitter.
Someone running a faux Twitter account posing as Iowa football offensive coordinator Brian Ferentz asked Bohannon if he “apologized to those he shamed this summer for making the right call about Iowa not being a tournament team?”
Bohannon fired right back. “I will never apologize for setting high expectations. That is what life is all about, setting goals, working and trying to accomplish them,” Bohannon wrote. “Maybe you should start doing that instead of creating a fake Twitter account and hiding behind a computer screen.”
