This all depends on Jordan Mickey and Jarrell Martin.

Scenario #1: both guys return to LSU and Craig Victor becomes eligible. I can see us going 26-5 in the regular season and advancing to the Sweet 16.

Scenario #2; Martin leaves and Mickey returns. I think we'd go 23-8 IF Ben Simmons adapts and contributes majorly by SEC season. We might well get to the Sweet 16 in this scenario as well.

Scenario #3; both the M&M guys leave which, imo, is the most likely scenario. Our inside presence will be limited to what Simmons and Victor can do and we'll need to rely on our guards to carry the team. I think 21-10 in this scenario and another quick visit to the NCAA Ty, maybe win one game if the matchup is good for us.

I think we win 3 as well. You guys ar football fans. Bball is a different animal.

Simmons and Blakeney are talents that we haven't seen in awhile. True game changers. Will make an immediate impact. If you add Malik to the mix. We win 30.

Push @ 30

George, Ben Simmons is already adapted, Sir. Like a very select few true freshmen, Maravich(though limited to freshman games he was obviously ready)Macklin, Williams, Jackson and Oneal, Mr. Simmons will dazzle us in what is likely a one and done scenario. He will lift the play of his teammates as the aforementioned stalwarts did. As for carrying the team, again that will be Simmons, especially in close games, regardless of who returns.
