2 years later NCAA reviews "Lucca Rule"

I thought this story was pretty interesting.

It looks like Lucca's situation a couple years ago might not ever happen again. As usual, it's too little too late for ISU, and more importantly Lucca Staiger.

Maybe the NCAA will award Lucca with an additional year of eligibility?

[herbicide]

Not surprisng.

That was total BS. Should NOT have happened to LS.

I can't wait to see Lucca play! I think he's going to have a huge year. He made 74 3-pointers last season (7th best in Cyclone history) on a bad wheel. I honestly think he's going to make a run at Dedric Willoughby's record of 102 from 1997. Go Lucca and Go Cyclones!

They could just give us another year of eligibility for Gilstrap and call it even. As Mac said in 1 interview when asked about Gilstrap's appeal for another season "I don't have the best track record with the NCAA when it comes to that kind of stuff."

Good point. I think that we might hear "THREEE...........LUCCA!!!!" a lot more often this year, and 74 of those is already a lot.

Would Lucca use it if he did get one? He was almost gone to the Euro pro thing last year.

I seriously doubt it.

One of my all time favorite Cyclones

Exactly...the NCAA will probably act generous and give him one and deny Gilstrap.
