Listen "75. Anthony Lucas: Overcoming Obstacles"
Episode Synopsis
Anthony Lucas was ahead of his time. The talented receiver made big play after big play and rewrote the Arkansas record books in the late '90s. Those records would stand until the age of wide-open offense came to college football. And yet he still holds the career record for most 100-yard receiving games. He's one of the greats. But how much did he have to overcome to get there? Lucas didn't have a good enough ACT score to qualify out of high school. But instead of going the JUCO route, he went ahead and enrolled at Arkansas, focusing on his grades. When he got on the field a year later, he made an impact. But the good times wouldn't last: Lucas suffered a season-ending knee injury in the first game of his sophomore season. And to top it off, his coach got fired. But Anthony Lucas isn't the type who wants pity. Instead, he got to work. And he became one of the best receivers in school history, responsible for countless fan-favorite moments.
