Well,now its pretty official...no Mickey, no Martin....

no, we will be terrible next year

Do you even know Ben Simmons?

Nobody here cares about basketball. The men could be in the final four right now and the fans would be more upset losing to Kentucky over the weekend

We offered Ray Kasongo for a reason recently

not according to 247

247 is worse than the Rant after Jordan Jefferson vs Bama in Title Game

Interesting, since I just read a free article off that site with quotes from his advisor stating he would not drag out his recruitment and was pretty set on LSU or the Mississippi schools, just wanted to visit 1st then decide soon

A lot hinges on Victor and Robinson, both of whom are very talented and will be sophomores.

Elbert Robinson is a seven footer who was no. 59 player and no. 6 center coming out of high school.

Craig Victor is a 6-9 power forward who was the no. 41 player and no. 6 power forward coming out of high school. He has had an extra year with time spent at Arizona then transferring.

I am optimistic.

I know he has an offer. We've been in contact with Kasongo a lot longer then a lot of people know.

We talked about Ray early last week and after watching this guys film I think he can fill Mickeys shoes perfectly. Maybe better and more athletic. I think he is also a inch taller so he can cover bigger men.

I also researched Elbert and looked at his high school film he is good. I think he was out of shape. He is a little stiff and slow but he should be serviceable in Middle with Victor at 4 and Simmons at 3.

Matter of fact if we have a lineup that looks like this we are golden IMHO. (Without Newman)

Tone Blake
Simmons
Victor
Robinson


We still have length and speed and athleticism.

The perfect line up: ( With Newman)

Newman
Tone Blake
Simmons
Ray K
Victor

Off bench
TQ
Hornsby
Patterson
Gray
Robinson
Epps
Bridgewater

All can play and get minutes we are in a good position to make a run in the tourney.

Looking at the McDonalds All American rosters...there are 3 uncommitted centers. Bryant, Swanigan and Zimmerman. None are currently considering LSU. Need to get the "Killer B's" to start hammering those guys.... (One is considering Chicago State for Christ's sake!)
