So let me try to understand this...you pay a coach a million fricking dollars a year and you should not expect better than what we are getting?


Oh yeah, JJ is the only college BB coach getting paid near that much money. Damnit man you have a point. NOT

You have to get serious too.

I know the pile on is huge, it's what your OP is about, but LSU should be an NCAAT this year.

There's really little excuse that we aren't.


Except for the fact the team simply was not that good this year. They should be good in upcoming seasons but like others have said one player does not turn an NIT team into a NCAA tourney team (in most cases).

2 top 5 players coming in, not 1.

Plus a senior Hornsby, Victor, a junior Quarterman, etc.



Oh wow, two freshman 5 star players coming in. Isn't there only like three 5 star players every year and we got TWO of them?

Your right, I don't know why I didn't expect to beat Kentucky in Rupp arena. It's not like they have a good record there or anything.

Man, two 5 star freshmen who have probably played together for years and years. LSU should fire JJ, Coach Miles, Orgeron, and Aranda to make a statement.

This board was booming after the Kentucky win too


The board was festive after the Vandy win, the road win at Bama.

There was a strong contingent of pumpers up until the Tennessee loss that were very aggressive and combative in their defense of our Tigers and I respect that loyalty. I'm a Tiger too man, I want to win and so do the vast majority here.

But you don't have to rationalize crap man. We are passionate fanatics and when we quit bitching and caring that's when you need to start really worrying about having any hope for this program. Cause if nobody cares this kind of crap is acceptable and we're doomed.

They build up unrealistic expectations based on nothing then when the crazy expectations don't happen they go ballistic blaming everything from the players to the coaching.

Sorry, I don't think expecting this team to make the tournament , as opposed to losing 13 fricking games, is "crazy". If you can't see how utterly terribly coached this team is, I can't help you.

You mean the win we barely had when we beat the worst team in the sec? Were you expecting a parade?

Agreed, expecting this team to make the NCAA tournament is far from unrealistic. Johnny Jones is a good guy, he loves LSU. But shite man......c'mon. Everybody watching can see. And I wish it weren't so cause I'd love to see him do well. I'd much rather be wrong than watch this disappointing display.

Seriously, why is that? One very good player does not make a team. Jesus, LSU fans are the most gullible people on the face of the earth.


Maybe because the last team to not make the tourney with a lottery pick was LSU with Anthony Randolph.

Usually the teams with the best player don't suck.

I did not, but here's the thing. It wasn't because Kentucky was so invincible and the talent deficit was such that it was inconceivable. Hell, we beat them by 18 a month ago.

The reason I didn't think we would win or even come close today was because of the consistent lack of effort we've shown, the consistent lack of discipline, and the regression of the team of late when you would expect a young team might be getting better...not an unrealistic expectation IMHO.

OP thinks making the NCAA tourney is an unrealistic goal? Man, I sure hope he's not in a leadership position of any kind.

Who wants to translate this idiotic bullshite for me?

And it isn't about 1 game. We didn't miss out on the tourney just because of this 1 game. It was the final nail.

I respect loyalty, and love of LSU, not shitting on kids and trying to be positive and all of that.

But you rationalize crap and you are bound to wallow in it.

Amen brother, truer words have never been spoken. I venture to say over 80% of this board is basically negative A-holes waiting on the blame game of a loss.
