quote: I had never heard of him (TJ), or if I did I quickly forgot. After hearing of the hire, I looked at his record at Stanford and thought, "OK, he won a conference championship at a major conference, yada yada." Decent hire. But I never thought it was a top shelf hire. I didn't appreciate the impact the twins had on his success. Maybe he was lucky. Reply • Back to Top |
| TJ was certainly considered a solid hire. However, there was also a fair amount of criticism since those Nevada and Stanford teams were pretty loaded and sexy picks to go much deeper in the tourney some of those years with players like Snyder, Fazekas, the twins at Stanford. Reply • Back to Top |

Alleva's bringing the Zen Master out of retirement  Reply • Back to Top |
quote: Johnson@ Stanford 20 win seasons: 1 Tourney wins: 2 Martin 20 win seasons: 5 Tourney wins: 6 quote: No not near at all. The ten years before Trent Stanford has ten straight 20 win seasons and at least one tourney win in every season. Trent started his tenure with three straight below twenty wins. Saying he kept things "near" the same level is like saying Smoke kept things "near" where Skip had them. quote: Ten years of sustained success is a firm foundation though.

quote: Will you people just stop. If he was going to fire Trent he would have fired Trent by now. And yea post the top guys everyone thinks will be te next great coach. No shite we want those guys, it's like being a Mississippi st. football fan and saying they should fire their coach and hire Urban Meyer when he left Utah. It ain't gonna freeking happen This post was edited on 3/26 at 7:40 pm Reply • Back to Top |
| Alleva won't fire TJ this year... if he doesn't make the NCAA next year, he should. If he doesn't, he should go to. And if u put enough paper on the table, you can get alot of people. Reply • Back to Top |

quote: Disagree. He was never a "catch". Reply • Back to Top |
quote: Can't be any worse than what we have now......the last 3 years have been abysmal, and his first year wasn't even that great when you consider how bad the SEC was in 09. Reply • Back to Top |
| Pretty much confirms that LSU is satisfied with having a mediocre basketball program right now. Reply • Back to Top |
| And a mediocre athletic director. Reply • Back to Top • Refresh |
