If LSU can hit some threes it's going to get the pace in their favor.


I feel like Parker Edwards can to come off the bench and spark the team from the three line for 4-5 minutes each half. Is Parker Edwards eligible this year or is he too much of a defensive liability to earn playing time because the dude is a sharp shooter and does not miss from the three line?

Parker Edwards


I think A lot of people remember his game against lsu but he really wasn't that good of a 3 point shooter last year. If you take out his LSU game he went under 30% for the rest of the season.

I trust Wade on this one. I'd rather give those minutes to Graves or Hyatt. Both are supposed to be our top shooting threats. Hyatt started slow but it looks like he's finally gotten his shooting legs. I've been impressed with Taylors shot also this year after it being a serious struggle last season. I know it's limited attempts but he just looks better shooting from three and the FT line.

No offense, but if Parker Edwards is playing 4-5 a half then LSU is in a WORLD of trouble. He would be a huge liability on defense, for a team that already plays relatively little defense.

Now, I do think Graves could be a guy to add a little spark. But we're talking maybe 2-3 minutes (at best) per half. My hope is that Hyatt is becoming more confident and acclimated as a shooter just like Days did as the season went on last year. If you remember, Days couldn't buy a 3 early on and he was clearly frustrated. But, by the end of the season he was probably LSU's most consistent 3 point shooter. Haytt confidently stepped into back to back 3's vs. Ole Miss. Hopefully that can continue tonight.
