Nothing to see here. Just another inept casual fan that decided to watch a basketball game today and make blanket statements while lacking the basic information necessary to make a claim.
umm did i not mention players? Trust me the 3 players that i mentioned you will see them on TV and you will remember this thread. 3 years ago was the same situation, Simmons, Washington, Dunn, Carter the kid from Thibidoux all played in the Top 28 and we missed all of them! This year there are a few kids who will be awesome players that we are missing out on. I watched Matt play he is good pure scorer, but Galloway, Brown & Williams are just as good if not all around better players. Another thing i clearly stated "LOUISIANA PLAYERS!" I believe our roster needs a makeover! Release some & make room for new players!

So you're complaining about guys on Baylor's team that Brady never recruited?

I don't believe all those players were seniors in the same season.
Three years ago LSU signed the following:
Anthony Randolph NBA lottery pick
Marcus Thornton SEC Player of the Year, two time All SEC, now one of best NBA rookies
Bo Spencer top 15 SEC scorer, starter on SEC champion
Quinton Thornton, valuable backup center on SEC title team
Garret Green, developing post man, jury still out
Did any of the players you listed even win a conference title?

The problem with basketball recruiting is that you can't simply pick the best basketball players. You must pick the best players to match your philosophy. A coach may decide to pick one player over a seemingly better player because he feels that he can get 3 or 4 seasons out of that player compared to just 1 for the other. One player may be eligible and the other may struggle to qualify. One might not have the same character flaws as the other. One player might be a better leader. One guy may fit into your system better than a more talented player.
