re: Where theres smoke theres fire: Stansbury to LSU with blue chip recruits

and Johnson's second year he had 2 NBA players and 3 pro players so no you're wrong he had talent.

You really need to look up that roster again.

I've always thought alo of rick stansbury. If he can do what he did at state then he should do well at lsu. I would be all for him as our next head coach and believe that he is qualified for the position.

He's a good coach. Look at what's happened at ATM now that he's gone.

---

Caruso, Jones, and House leaving is the difference not Stansbury.

Davis, Hogg, Gilder, Morelos and Williams are all stud recruits. They're loaded.

They were top 35 pre season but look where they are now. Kennedy was about to be fired before last season. The 2 recruiting classes that saved him are heavily recruited by Stansbury. Yes those players you mentioned made a big difference but he helped get them and there's still plenty talent there yet ATM is horrible.

quote:

We need a coach in the mold of the Florida hire (White). A young, energetic, successful and knowledgeable coach. He looks like he will be successful there. They used the same formula in their prior hire, Donovan.

People, we're talking about Mr. Duke Lacrosse, Hire the DL Coach, Joe Alleva. Get real.

Why is that weird? College Basketball has an early signing period. Unless academically ineligible, the player is contractually bound to the university if he signs a NLI.

---

Didn't the NCAA at least consider letting someone who signed a NLI out of the letter if the coach who recruited him leaves before he plays, as long as he transfers where the coach is leaving for ?

Numbers are 100% correct and Johnson's second year he had 2 NBA players and 3 pro players so no you're wrong he had talent. Just as much as Miss St.

Madking, I guess I missed the NBA contracts these guys below got, because below is the roster for Trent's second year. Check your facts again one more time. Not even one, not even one of my all time favorites Taz even sniffed the NBA. You just lost all credibility with your above statement.

However you want to manipulate what happened the facts are Johnson was 3-5 vs stansbury with a -24 point difference and Stansbury beating him by double digits multiple times including a 17 point whipping. Johnson never beat Stansbury by more than 2 points so no he didn't outcoach him.

---

Wrong again on just about all of this. Johnson was 4-5 vs. Stansbury while here and absolutely did beat him by more than two points, he beat State 81-57 at home his first year....so not sure where you are getting your cumulative point differential or any other of your stats for that matter.

Outside the first year, I don't think you could argue LSU had more talent than State and year 2 and 3 State had considerably an inarguably much more.

I've said multiple times I was mistaken about the second year roster. Again I forgot his first year was 08-09 I thought that was his second season.
