Missed this the other day... UConn’s Lucien was prepared when called into duty vs. Indiana
>>He's 100 percent focused on the sidelines both during practices and games, so he'll be prepared when his number is called like it was in the second half of Saturday's 38-3 loss at Indiana.
"Honestly, I feel just as prepared as the starters," Lucien said on Tuesday. "Even though we don't get as many physical reps during practice, we're still completely locked in on the sidelines. We get the exact same plays, so we'll see what the (starters) will be getting so we're ready to go by the time we get in. And we're all in shape, so, physically it's fine. Mentally, we're always locked in on the sidelines."<<
>>After starting four games last season and appearing in nine, Lucien is well prepared to fill in on short notice. He's adjusted to the speed of the game and can lean on his experience.
"Coming in, I don't get those same butterflies that I did last year,"<<
