What would be Barnes' nickname (if he committed to us)???

[dbronco7sc]

Hypothetical Question: Harrison Barnes commits to ISU... what would be his nickname (if any)?

Obviously we can throw "The Mayor" out of the running.

My thoughts:

I think it would be cool if it were something like "The Advantage".
Because no matter who we play... Iowa State will always have The Advantage. (The Edge sounds cooler... but Edgerrin James had to steal that one)

or

'Hard Ball' to play off of Harrison Barnes

Disclaimer:

I'm not trying to jump the gun and set a nickname in stone for a young man who has not even committed to us. And I realize that pegging somebody with nickname before they even set foot on campus is just putting unnecessary pressure on that person. I am just trying to start an enjoyable thread for people to discuss some fun nicknames that hopefully someday in the future we might see one of them given to Harrison. If you don't have anything positive to contribute... please do not contribute.

I'm thinking something meteorological, i.e. Cyclone-related:

How about "F-5", because he is THE most dangerous Cyclone ever.

I would be a fan of 'hometown hero' personally. Keep it simple. Perhaps 'the bouncer' would work as well.

I think we had a thread like this, and someone mentioned "The Magician". We'll just see how he performs on the court first, though.

Higglytown Hero?
HB?
BarneStormer?
The Deputy Major? or Deputy Dawg for short?
County Treasurer - because he is MONEY BABY!
The Sheriff?

I will have to give this some more thought ;-)

I was thinking "Tim".

Tim Barnes was pretty good.
