    To be honest, I'm not sure Lucas hasn't outplayed Jordan and earned the starting spot over the last few games.
    Don't worry, I am sure he has. That doesn't mean that will always be the case, it just so happens that the past couple of teams have had good match ups with Jordan's poor athleticism. His size might be an advantage against some teams (Il State mostly).

      I can't imagine someone lying in an effort to support an argument on the intrawebs...
      I could have sworn a HS friend of mine got suspended for DWI while at MSU that's what I was going off of. But thanks for legally checking with my posts. Goodness. It's a message board.

          Some people should seriously shut up, if you're going to write something could it at least make sense. EVERYONE has had a drink and drove to some extent so EVERYONE is a killer. nah so much. idiot.

            Not EVERYONE.

            Some of us were too busy playing d&d, evidently.
            (but seriously, not everyone drives while intoxicated)

                Not sure if it's a school thing or coaches decision on the length of the suspension, but I remember Woodley was out for 2-3 games when he got his OWI. So maybe it is the set standard when something like this occurs.

                  Ohh honey. Quit pretending you're important, some people go on this website to defend the people they care about, and some people don't have people, so they use smiley faces, and dancing bananas. Are you even old enough to DD. Everyone loves a Hater.

                    I didn't see the game Sat. because I was out of the country, but which of these two stat lines belongs to the player many believe cost us the game and which belongs to the superstar who can do no wrong?

                    I never understand the hate for some of our best players. They are always held to a much higher standard and crucified if they make any mistakes. JE scores 35% more points per minute or greater than anyone else on the team. He leads in rebounding despite playing fewer minutes than any other starter and often fewer than his main sub. He has seldom gotten in foul trouble or turned the ball over much.

                    If it's true we never got the ball into Jordan after the first couple possessions of the second half, that's ridiculous and probably why we lost. I don't care if he missed a bunny and turned it over. I remember a game not too long ago when KA was horrible for the first 30 minutes and then took the game over the last 10. Glad we didn't quit letting him play or touch the ball.

                    And why can't you space or tab on these posts so a tabular presentation doesn't look stupid?

                        I think very rarely to people go on here to "defend those they care about" and in my opinion when people openly do that is something that should be written into the Panthernation constitution.

                        Thought shall not post on Panthernation.com openly has a current student athlete, current student athlete parent, friend, or even former teacher (I think we had one of those once).

                          You do realize that 4 of Jordan's boards came after his own misses right? Take 3 away and you have a guy that is 7'0" tall averaging 3-4 boards away. Is there a stat for when Jordan goes to touch a ball and it banks off his banana hands into the crowd. Does that show up as a turnover committed by him, or the guy that passed it to him? You realize that is Jordan's average stat line, and our "best players" second worst of the year.

                                I'm no statistician, but I assume if a pass actually touches his hands that t/o would be on Jordan, but if it is out of reach off the mark it would be on the passer. That is his average stat line, and it is better than the "best player's" average stat line, playing 40% more minutes, so why would anyone claim JE cost us that game?

                                You're a hater, for whatever reason, known only to you.
