Maybe next year with the guys we have coming in we can make a deep nit run. Jones can't coach his way out of a paper bag.

What kind of asinine motivation is this supposed to be?


It's called realism and being optimistic about the future of a growing program.

At least we are trending in the right direction.

Does it really matter if you have no shot at winning?



That is a horrible attitude to have.

Who cares about basketball only if you have a chance to win it.

Making the tourney is an accomplishment for schools like LSU.

Stop trolling



Not trolling. This team is good enough to be a 7 seed. UConn was a 7 seed last year that lost by 33 in its final regular season game. The only position that UConn had on this year's LSU team was point guard.

So just because we won't win the NCAA tourney, playing shitty and losing should be acceptable and ok?

Guess we should just quit now because we won't win the tourney so it doesn't matter. In fact, every school in the nation except about 8 schools should just quit playing basketball because they don't have a chance to win it.

These days, in both NBA and college, it's all about the backcourt. And when your backcourt isn't making plays and they're turning it over...you won't have success.

Good thing point guard isn't an important position in basketball.

Better based on what? We're 2-2 in the conference, we finished 9-9 last year, we're right on track to do exactly what we did last year. We just played our way out of the tournament this week and are NIT bound currently. Not going anywhere near the NCAAT losing a game every week.

The recruits are pointless if you cant coach them, the team we have now is EXTREMELY talented. It's not going to get a lot better next season when we lose Martin and Mickey and add 2 super freshmen. People will just claim we're young, then those 2 guys will declare for the draft too.

Are we making the tournament this year? No

We've had enough talent the past two seasons to make the tournament and didn't......

I don't think they are NC caliber, but they are talented enough to think that a lucky run to the Sweet 16 isn't unreasonable.

If this team doesn't finish worse than third or maybe 4th in a conference this average, they are flat-out underachieving right now.

We all know this team doesn't have the pieces to win the NCAA tournament yet, just accept it. Look at our last final four team...it takes a special lineup to get that far.

It'd be nice to make the tournament. And we do have the pieces to do that.

This team's talent is probably around a 10 seed or higher in the NCAAT

Coaching is 0-18 horrible.

If LSU misses the Tourney next year JJ has to go. Only reason I want to keep him around is to not screw up this class we have next season.
