If Jones is able to flip gathers, most of the people complaining here will be more disappointed with Gathers. He's not the program savior that many of you are making him out to be.

He has improved. I don't think many people expect him to be the program savior that some had touted him to be.

He will certainly help the team.

I agree. I persanally will not be disappointed if he's decent but some people are now acting like he's a one and done.

If the options are Gathers or the tuba player, I'll take Gathers.

People saw him as a freshman and sophomore and assumed he could be that type of player. He didn't improve as much as some thought, though he is still a very, very good high school player.

He will probably start next year if he comes.

I agree. No one is expecting anything out of Jones. People are way too excited about Gathers, who will be a solid player, but he does not look like a real difference maker, especially when you factor in this is the worst year I have ever seen for high school basketball.

We still could use some bodies on the team.

The cupboard is so bare that we need role players, too. Get anyone that wants to suit up.

But if Gathers sucks, it will be Jones' fault.

Any decent big will help us be competitive next year.

we just need a few good men who can ball. C'mon Coleman, Hammink, and Gathers I think a line up of:

Hickey
Turner
Coleman
Gathers
O'Bryant

Ludwig, Stringer, Morgan, Isaac, Courtney could win some games.

Who said Gathers was a savior? What most have said is LSU should be able to keep legit talent at home whoever the coach is.
