I heard Lucca played H-O-R-S-E with Ditka, after beating Ditka in a wrestling match. He made Ditka cry.

Agreed!

How could a guy that averages 40 points per half not be a game changer??

that is not what i read into that... a coach is always going to lower the fans expectations so that there is not so much pressure on a player to perform like an all-american

Here's my guess:

Lucca posts a quadurple double: 21 points (7-7 from 3 point land), 15 rebounds, 10 assists, 10 steals.

At the end of the game, we hoist his number in the rafters

He quits ISU after that game, knowing he can't top that performance and we declare him the GREATEST CYCLONE EVER!!!!

There. Fixed that for ya.

If he's not the second coming of Fred Hoiberg, I'm going to be ******.

If that performance was against Kansas, I'll take it

Is it just me, or is everyone severely ****ed off to see the word sophomore attached to his name?

Man, I couldn't agree with you more here. I know that when I was in college, I worked my BUTT off my freshman year and at the end I really felt like I earned the title of sophomore the next year. Lucca comes in, gets to sit around and watch basketball games for free, go to a few classes here and there and then gets to hang out in Europe all summer comes back to Ames and is automatically a sophomore. Tears.
