So why when TJ was coach did Coleman take lots of visits and talk up other schools yet within a couple weeks of Jones getting hired he signs on the line? Why did Geert come out and say that because of Jones hire he would push Shane to LSU even more?


thank you for making the point. admission he was going to lsu, probably regardless the coach.

secondly, coleman wanted to come to lsu and waiting for the next coach to be hired to see if he fit in the plans.

I'm not on here pumping trent and bashing jones. I'm excited with the hires he's made. He's done a good job in the short time he's been here. i'm happy about that.

to say he's rebuilt the team in three weeks and he got all these players on his and with trent previously recruiting them is absurd.

let's be a little realistic here. the team, without hamilton and warren, isn't as good as last years team. If you think we are winning 20 next year, you'll be here bashing jones, then.

i'm gonna predict 20 wins next year...with almost no bigs i can see us lighting up 3's and getting tons o long rebounds in a retro loyola marymount style offense...at least that's what i dreamed the other night.

Hammink was more likely to go to LSU than other places but he had some big time offers which with Trent still coaching here he might have given more consideration. Hiring Johnny Jones was what sealed the deal according to his dad. If trent was still here we have no idea what would have happened.

If we get Odoh then we win 20 games.
A line up of
Hickey, morgan/hammink, coleman, JOB, Odoh with Stringer, morgan/hammink, godfrey coming off the bench
>>>>>>
Hickey, Stringer, Tuner, JOB, Hamilton with Storm and Malcom white and ludwig off the bench.

Hamilton while a decent player disappeared down the stretch. Having a post rotation of JOB Godfrey and Odoh will be almost as good if not better than last year (if JOB takes a step forward) and we will be much deeper and more consistant at positions 1-3. We won 18 games with that team with bad losses to South Alabama and Coastal Carolina. 20 wins with the aforementioned lineup is very very possible.
