i remember hotep telling me about him and i went check him out and hoped we'd offer but yeah not exactly a trent guy (i.e. he could play) there were a few threads discussing him on the RB a couple yrs ago

i would definitely love to go back and take brown.

I didn't think that Dunn ever wanted to go to LSU.

Hotep was a huge Johnson apologist

Meh, he eventually jumped into the Fire Trent crowd like other people did.

I'd give TJ credit for Hamilton too.

And for 2008, does Brady get credit for the majority of that class?

That said, Qualls was a miss for LSU. He wouldn't be starting, but he would be getting a lot of minutes.

He's avg. 1 ppg more, 2 rpg more, and 1 apg less than Stringer. He's not a bad player, but I doubt he would be a huge difference maker on this team either.

For the people bitching about TJ not getting Galloway, his uncle is an Asst. Coach at SJU. He was never coming to LSU

I dont see how he wouldnt be starting for us considering what he's doing right now at Arkansas. He'd probably be our starting 2 replacing Stringer. Dude is 6'6 vs. Stringer's 5'9 and is putting up even better numbers.

I was going to comment about his shooting ability not being close to Stringer. After looking it up, he's doing better than I thought. While he doesn't shoot a lot of 3s, he's been very good from the 3pt line. Quite an improvement.

Qualls wasn't overlooked by LSU. Simply wasn't what LSU was looking for. His shot has improved TREMENDOUSLY. He was every bit of 6'6 his senior year and couldn't hit the side of a barn. Straight, dunker. Anyone stronger than him, he wouldn't even drive. Huntington came to Peabody in the Quarters and we put a 6'2 guard on him and he scored I think 8 points all at he free throw line. He averaged close to or over 20 all year.

But that's the difference with improvement and the way the college game is played. 2 kids from that same game, now on the same college team, Qualls got a chance cause of his size...he improved, Dee had 12 in that game against Huntington and sat for probably 20 of the 32 mins due to foul trouble. NOW...he's on the bench simply cause he's too small for Arky's system and sitting behind a PG who can defend due to size...but can't shoot. Just the way it is.

It's nice to see former HHS Raiders doing well at the next level. Too bad Fobbs never made it on the field for Les. This former Raider is proud of them wherever they play.
