Man I hope some of you can get refills on your meds. To bring anything negative about bringing in a starter from a Big 12 team averaging double digits shows just how pathetic this "fan" base is. And I didn't see anyone acting like we signed some super star. I guess the stupidity will continue. Wright was a great addition to this team. So if this guy is at or better than him it's a good get.

I don't know. This thread seems pretty even-keeled for the Rant. I don't see anyone arguing that Carter isn't a solid addition. However, I'm not sure he is as good as Wright, esp. when you look at the advanced analytics; Wright has a BPR of 4.42, which is Top 250, vs. Carter's BPR of 3.1, putting him outside the Top 500. He is a solid addition but can't be the cornerstone of this transfer class. CMM still needs a couple of big hitters if LSU is to move off the NIT bubble and into the NCAA.
