the recruiting has probably been most impressive. Bubba Hotep's continued defense of Trent's recruiting and his fricking awful staff was always puzzling. Dude would constantly say staff's are overrated and it was ok for Trent to have a 95 year old assistant who did jack shite

I think a head coaches (all sports) biggest job is picking good assistant coaches. You are the CEO of the team and you cannot teach everyone everything. What you can do is put people in place that will teach the players what they need to know. Love the staff Jones has put together.

I definitely didnt feel bad when Trent left. By the end of last season i was very indifferent about keeping him or firing him. Once he actually left, It was like a breath of fresh air. I actually bought that schtik that it would take 4 years to build a program. I think Johnny is showing, with the right assistants and good recruiting techniques, it can take only two years at a place like LSU for basketball. Attrition under Trent was almost as bad under Brady. Never understood recruiting players like Ludwig. Sure he is a good kid, but if you notice, he isnt playing any lately.
