"I always looked forward to the (Iowa-Iowa State) game and playing in the series, but at the end of day, we're all Iowans and I think people respected the fact we did that for Chris," Hoiberg said. "More importantly, it was a sign to Chris and a sign to his family that he will never be forgotten." Cyclones to don the No. 40 are Morgan Wheat of West Des Moines (1993), Hoiberg (1994), Loren Meyer of Ruthven (1995), Klay Edwards of Morning Sun (1996-99), Brad Davis of Knoxville (2000-02), Dave Braet of Calamus (2004-05), Ross Marsden of Ames (2006-07), and Mark Currie of Odebolt (2008) . There are three Iowans currently on the Cyclone roster, but none wear 40. "For Iowa State to do that was tremendously classy," said Gary Close, a former Hawkeye assistant coach. "I know the family appreciated it, we appreciated it, and it was a great example of putting things in the proper perspective and appreciating what Chris had done." Street hailed from central Iowa, but reports of his death warranted top billing on national sports networks. "So many people had so much respect for Chris because of the way he approached his life," Hoiberg said. "He was a great student, he was a great athlete, and he was a great person. He touched a lot of lives." The memory of Street will be honored by the University of Iowa on the 20th anniversary of his death -- Jan. 19, 2013 -- during a home game against Wisconsin. 50
