re: tOfficial LSU 2015/2016/2017 Basketball Recruiting Thread

Bridgewater only played significantly because Mickey AND Epps were out, same could be argued for Odo.

We're simply not going to have a roster like UK, ever. We're going to always have some college bench guys at best on scholarship because we're not going to stockpile 10 Top 100 players on a team at once. Keep in mind Odo, Bridgewater and Malone were all recruited and signed by Johnny Jones, so they aren't just some leftover from Trent Johnson.

Arkansas fans were doing the same thing last year we are this year with Jones against Mike Anderson. They were in Year 3 much like we were in Year 3 and they couldn't win games away from home and they had no hope of making the tournament at one point and ended up in the NIT just like we did. Arkansas fans are just as anxious to see their team return to the dance as we are seeing our return to the dance and are frustrated when we lose to inferior teams regardless of the reason.

Now in year 4 under Anderson they really have no more talent than we do, just happen to play more bodies. You can tell they are coached up better than our guys are. They look like the 2nd or 3rd best team in the conference so far meanwhile we look like the same ole 9-9 type team who will lose to anyone but may beat anyone.
