    Eric Mika is a beast

    26 and 18 his first game back from mission. I don't think we've had a dominant, true college 5 like this, since...ever?

    Let's kick off the Eric Mika thread with a poll. What is your favorite Drago line from Rocky IV?

    Everyone thinks that it was the mission. It's the fact that he got married.

      I think you are correct. My GPA went from a 2.35 to a 3.75 after I got married. Pre-mission and post mission single years were the same.

        Unfortunately, he wasn't think about the future of BYU athletics when he got married.

          Yeah I saw a picture of them the other day and had the same thought.

          Also, how do you justify not voting for "I must break you" in this poll?

              How about everything? Unbelievable what he is doing. It's a shame this is the shittiest bunch of guards we've had for as long as I can remember. Hopefully they can get their act together. Rose with a great big man should be able to accomplish a lot.

                  That's Cosic. More precisely, Krešimir Ćosić.

                    Why is she small and petite? We need somebody in the athletic department to pair up our athletes, to avoid paring down the future athletes.

                        They've been together since high school. She's a cheerleader. Sweet girl.

                          Damn it. We need a homewrecking more athletically inclined girl for him.

                            Next year when his field goal percentage gets above 57% he will be approaching AA status. Then the calls will start going his way more frequently and his composure will improve.

                              Mika with 8 rebounds in 16 minutes tonight in Summer League with the Heat.

                              Looks like he didn't play much in the Summer League -- plenty of DNP-CDs for him past few weeks.
