After Victor, it's rough, real rough. Darcy and Robinson just ain't there yet.

Sorry, wrong board.

Our big men aren't good at basketball...

Very disappointed in Robinson. Just has not become the beast everyone thought he would be in the middle.

How in the hell he was rated a 5 star player coming out of high school is beyond me.

I'm still trying to figure that one out. I think he needs to trim down some more in order to use his abilities.

He was never a 5 star on any website

High 4-star recruit. Regardless he hasn't lived up to the hype YET. He may be able to turn this around if he wants it bad enough. I still be eve he can.

I mean somewhere in Baton Rouge or hell the state of Louisiana, there has to be some C/PF type of guys better than Malone,Bridgewater & Robinson.
The recruiting staff should be fired!

There have been it's just that LSU hasn't signed them. They go out of state. He won't be fired simply due to the recruiting class from 2015. Now I'm not sure how you go from that class to our current class (commitments), quite a difference. But I will say these young men have a chance to prove they are better then their ranking.

There was and he is now an All SEC layer. For Vanderbilt.
Johnny was not able to make up the ground Trent Johnson had left. If he had come out a year later may be a Tiger.

Johnny also signed Mickey and Martin in that class. M&M went pro a year earlier then Damien.

I'm not sure he can improve drastically upon his biggest deterrent......his slow feet. He is as nimble as a one legged donkey. I just dont think he has the athletic ability to be what people are wanting from him. Sure, he can get quicker, but I dont expect by the leaps and bounds that would be required to get him where he needs to be. Hope I'm wrong

And it will be worse next year. We are losing Simmons and adding a juco. Why jones didn't add another post in this class is beyond me.

He's not close to a 5* player on any site.

Academics mattered to Damian. There was no real shot at getting him regardless of the coach.

Really don't know why brigewater did not play at least he brings some toughness to the game
Posted on 1/20/16 at 12:39 pm to mrbayoublu
Lack of coaching is killing us as much as anything.

He's hurt and he would not have made a difference. He's maybe 6'5 and he's around 280 pounds. That's far from an effective basketball body.
