it's going to to be extremely difficult to achieve a level of enthusiasm for hoops. I do think winning consistently might spark it some though.
I think what is reasonable is that we can get a bigger core fan base with a re-newed enthusiasm. But I think to hope that it will ever to be close to what it was 30 years ago is a pipe dream.
The landscape is so different, and the win and they will come mantra is only half right. More will come yes, but as much as then....probably not even close. Heck we go 14-2 in the SEC in 2006 and had some pretty exciting players on that team and our best crowd of the year was 10K.

Expectations were extremely low that year. LSU was just off an embarrassing loss to UAB in the tourney and had lost Bass to the NBA. Tyrus Thomas came out of nowhere that year.

requires paying players.
I think that Jones will get the job done for awhile.
