I'm just not sold on JOB leaving after this season. I think if he bolts after this year, then he'll have a career in Europe.

If he stays next year and the Tigers make the NCAAT, then he will have more exposure and could parlay that into getting drafted by an NBA team.

You don't have to be sold and I'm not saying he's making the right decision, but he's 100% gone after this year.

I think Morgan will transfer and has played his last game as a Tiger, too.

What if Morgan redshirts next year? JOB will be gone, Mickey and Martin as well...just a thought.

Obryant is gone after this year imo...I don't think his game will progress anymore here than it could w/NBA coaching. I also don't think he's more of a 2-3rd guy off the bench in the NBA which is still great for him likely he'll spend his first couple years in the D-League which could help his game.

Without a doubt, he will not be back for numerous reasons.

Apparently he wanted to transfer last summer but was talked out of it. It's highly likely he'll be thinking about it again IMO.

His injury is going to take 6-9 months of recovery, which could take him to late October and then he has to get into game shape.

I don't think he'll play for LSU again. Makes me sad because he's a great kid with defensive skills and a great 3 shot when on form.

In other news, is his little brother still a baller? Does he have an LSU offer yet?

Nearly all media members are operating under the assumption he's leaving along with one of the two freshman forwards declaring.

It's essential that we keep 2 of the three.

I dunno. Coaches can't talk about anything until it's a commit. And they don't, believe me, we've tried.

He's only a freshman, but I read somewhere that he is indeed a rising talent. 6'4" already. Averaging 21 points and 11 rebounds in first 2 games this year.

World Wide Geert can afford the tuition


Just curious, how'd Geert make his $$$.

I once played horse with Geert & Shaq on a mini goal.

Final standings

1: Geert
2: me
3: Shaq...he was out of his league

Played NBA ball for a few years, played international for another 10 years or so, made a healthy living then. I'm guessing he invested his money well.
I don't think he's filthy rich, but I do know that his 3 sons attended and played hoops for one of the top international private schools in Europe.
In doing so, he payed for them to travel all over the world to play ball and we all know that takes serious money.

eta: I have little to no inside info on the Hamminks. All I know is what I've heard over the years, and whatever is available online for anyone to read.

So, it looks like Hornsby and Gray are pretty obvious replacements if Morgan leaves the program. What will their classifications be again? They just have 2 years of eligibility correct?

Correct. Both will be incoming juniors. Hornsby is already on scholarship though. So is Bridgewater
