I get amused when I read/hear how talented our team is. It isn't loaded with talent. We have two gifted, athletic basketball players in Mickey and Martin. Past that I see average to below average basketball talent. I think Patterson and Hornsby are hard working role players, but neither is really talented as such. Quarterman has average talent but plays hard and effectively much of the time.

I just do not see LSU MBB as a team that is talented.

compared to the rest of the SEC, we're likely top 2-3 in talent.

If quarterman has average talent then you've never watched another basketball game outside LSU. Laughable

Dude is 6'6 or 6'6 with good ball handling and passing vision. Shot has come a long way in one year. Plays good defense and is really long. Yea average talent

It's all relative George. Is it top 20 level talent, probably not.

But when you compare it to the rest of the teams in the SEC, a strong argument can be made we are the 3rd or 4th most talented team in the conference, which is about where we were picked before the season.

And we certainly have the talent to make a field of 68, which after some disappointing under-achievement at times this year, we've put ourselves in position to do.
