I tend to agree. This is pretty much the exact type of roster that he likes to work with and they're all his players. This year will tell us a lot.

I thought last year's team's ceiling was sneaking in as a high seed in the NCAA tourney and we were likely an NIT/bubble team. Not to say I wasn't disappointed with a number of games that we had no business losing. But as you said, this team has major upgrades at guard and our 2 best overall players returning (Jarrell is poised for an eye-opening season IMHO). I like what this team has the chance to bring and will be disappointed with anything short of an NCAA bid.

Presumably Patterson & Quarterman, are the back court bench, would Epps be the front court help, what's expected of Malone & Odo?

While I really feel LSU should be right there looking at an NCAA birth this season, I don't think hisseat gets very hot if they end up 5th-6th or better in the SEC. He has the #1 player coming in next season, and maybe a couple more 5 star recruits...
