It's obvious. Whack if you want Gestapo. The rest of the team is following his lead. The one guy (Hornsby) who plays with intensity and desire has been on the bench for the whole second half. I can't speculate about what's going on internally with this team, but it can't be good.

Blakeney cares. That's about it though

Is it just my imagination, or does LSU not put its arms up and jump on defense in an attempt to alter a shot? It seems like we must have absolutely no vertical skills on this team or something.

Hornsby played like shite tonight and if he was a true leader he would be in people's arse. Get off his dick. Blakeney came to play tho.

Hornsby didn't play the entire second half

I've defended Ben a lot this year and I think for the most part I was justified. But the last two games, the disinterest in playing any defense at all against Bama and to me the seeming disinterest in being out there at all tonight....I gotta agree, I can't defend that.

He ended up getting his numbers in garbage time, but it sure as hell looked like he DGAF tonight. Hope I'm wrong....but you saw it. You all saw it. Be honest.

He always gets his numbers in garbage time. So fricking frustrating

I wonder if JJ finally decided to quit pussyfooting with BS and got on his arse about not stepping up? These last two games "could" be BS just playing not to get hurt.

if I've learned anything from posters like beefense, choctaw, and gray tiger it's to never question coaching decisions.

The most blatant example was the TO on the throw in after the Tennessee basket in the second half. He just walked into the lane on the defensive end like "oh well". I believe that Tennessee took it straight to the hole and scored.

And this fanbase DGAF about Simmons. Right when it looked like the team was struggling the he is overrated and not very good started from his own fans. Simmons has had a historic season, but will be looked at like a failure for his own fanbase.

Don't agree there, but the last two games, I DGAF about the taped finger, he's played like he's done and moving on.

Hornsby played like shite last game too. He's a big time liability on defense.

because its a team game not an individual sport and he doesn't give max effort on D. He also shys away when its crunch time.

If you're a college basketball player, your biggest goal should be to get to the big dance with the highest seed possible. I haven't seen Ben interested in that since day 1. Yeah, you can hang some numbers and get ESPN to blow smoke up your arse, but individual goals have always seemed more important to him than team goals.

Team is clearly spilt over those who want Lee to start and those who want Jefferson.
