Frank Kaminsky Says Goodbye to Wisconsin in Heartfelt Letter

Frank Kaminsky had one hell of a career for the Wisconsin Badgers. From being named the Naismith College Player of the Year to leading his team to the national championship game of the NCAA tournament during his senior season, The Tank has a lot to be grateful for. Before venturing off to the NBA, Kaminsky wrote an emotional note to Badgers fans, looking back at his four years in Madison. In the farewell, he begins with this:

"

To be honest, I have been putting off writing this blog for a while now. Writing this blog means that my time at Wisconsin has come to an end, and I am now officially reflecting on the past. Thinking about what to write here is difficult because there is so much to say, but at the same time it makes me sad. First and foremost, I have never loved being a part of something as much as I loved being a student-athlete at the greatest university in the world. Thinking about the future is scary, but I know that I am now ready for it. However this is not a blog about my future. This is a blog to say thank you and goodbye to the best thing I have ever known. 

"

He talks about his time being recruited and how he was a "frail kid with lofty dreams who wanted to achieve something great" when he got to Wisconsin. From discussing the struggles of his freshman and sophomore years to dominating the playing field in his junior and senior seasons, Kaminsky will be missed.

The NBA draft is on June 25.
