Will he get fired or will a trip to the NIT be enough to save his job?
I would imagine he gets his full contract regardless. Why give Trent 4 years and not Johnny ?
2nd. What coach would consider coming to LSU if Johnny is fired after 3 seasons ?
I do agree though, that after 4 seasons, Johnny would have either failed or succeded in bringing the program along in the right direction. By success, I am talking about finishing in the top 4 of the SEC and taking this team to the Dance. If we don't make a tourney next year or year 4, I think he will be fired.
After year 4, If success is not realized, I think the Athletic Director/BOS and major boosters will need a major intervention concerning the basketball program. I think Johnny will get it turned around next year though.

LSU basketball can be big time like it was in the Scales, Macklin, Blanton, Redden, Carter, Jackson and O'Neal days. It can be big time with the right coach in place, which I don't think JJ is. He better find some better X/O (Particularly Defensive) assistant coaches to improve the staff and go for it next season because that's it as far as I'm concerned. No more patience. Get'er Done next season or it's time to clean house. Quit screwing around and pay the bucks to get somebody in here who can recruit, coach, motivate, organize and publicize.

It's all about the money. Any coach that wants to be paid $$$$$$$$$$$ will come here. The LSUAD/TAF/Power Brokers just have to decide to spend the big bucks to get a coach with proven success. LSU Fans/Alums have to demand that it happens! If they pay him, he will come.
