re: 2015, 2016, and 2017 LSU Basketball Recruiting

While it is very early I will give it a shot on my prediction and opinion although I usually defer to S and Ouaron for this sort of thing, I just compile the list and who we offer

We have two seniors so that is at the very least two scholarships available. The thing is I do not see anybody on this year's team that would be asked to leave or transfer, however that can always change depending on who we have that wants in. I cannot say whether JOB3, Martin, or anybody else would go pro or leave without first seeing at the very least non-conf play.

Depth Chart for 2014 by class as it stands now:
PG: Hickey(SR) Quarterman(SO)
SG: Morgan(JR) Hornsby(JR)
SF: Hammink(JR) Martin(SO)
PF: O'Bryant(SR) Bridgewater(SO) Mickey(SO)
C: Odo(SR) Malone(SO)

So off of that you definately need atleast one more guard, preferably a combo guard. If O'Bryant, Martin, or Mickey were to leave early, then a need down low for sure.

My predicted 3:
PF James Thompson 6'9 (205) Baton Rouge
PG/SG Jeff Newberry 6'2 (175) JUCO
PF Ray Kasongo 6'9 (235) Canada

My Darkhorse/Player to Watch
Jonah Bolden 6'9 SF/PF that is a Top-10 talent from Australia that I just saw recently on TD, that I think could be a can't miss recruit, that may become a priority.

Hope this helps, and welcome any other suggestions, comments, or predictions, from some people in the know.
