You seriously think he should not be fired?

Did that for the Georgia coach who won finished last in the conference then won the tournament, back in the late 2000's. Ended up firing him the next year anyway when he finished poorly again.

The problems have become systemic and irreversible. We can't string 4 wins together because of the deep seeded issues CJJ has allowed to fester and take control of the program.

He's not the reason this team is flailing around.

But, I'm not naive enough to think he isn't gone absent some unlikely turn of events at the SEC tournament.

Given the problem play and weak talent of this team, he should get some credit for the early wins they had this season and the fact that they haven't completely cashed it in at this point.

Holy shite, are you blind, deaf, and dumb? Have you not seen the crap he trots out every game? Maybe the way he doesn't coach at all? Complete lack of game strategy? Maybe the way the players have completely given up on his sorry arse? How about the way Ben Simmons pushed him around and the team with the most talented player in the country couldn't make the tournament? You're a fricking moron if you think he still belongs here as anything but a ball-boy or an ex-player cheering from the stands

They've lost fricking 13 games in a row and they haven't "cashed it in"? They routinely lose my 20+ points, and they field one of the worst defenses in the country. You should be banned for being this stupid

I'd maintain he is the very reason they are.

What are these "deep seeded issues?"

All I see is a team that doesn't have that much talent, with one exception.

I would place the odds of LSU winning the SEC Tourney about 1500:1

No, since it meant that we got extremely lucky or that the other 13 schools' teams would have been in some sort of serious accident

I have a better chance of having a threesome with Kate Upton and Genie Bouchard.

Judging by 63 downvotes to zero upvotes, I'd say you're the only one who'd support retaining JJ.

LSU basketball is having their worst season in 50 years...and coming off a year where they had the guy who went #1 in the draft and couldn't even make the tournament. JJ needs to go before he does anymore damage to LSU basketball's reputation for the long term.

If they win the SEC tourney, they should get a top 8 national seed. No way they don't get to host a regional.
