You CANNOT count on Malone, Elbert or Epps..
You are obviously young, or just a know-it-all-20-something prophet.
If you were old enough to see the huge leap in skill that Jose Vargas, Gert Hammink, and Tyrus Thomas made over a short period, then you wouldn't speak in absolutes.

Or recent history, Tim Quarterman.

Simmons is as good as Martin or Mickey
Understatement of the year. Simmons will be a significant player in the NBA and is in a different stratosphere than M&M RIGHT NOW. I don't want to see Simmons HAVE to play 4/5 at LSU only because we have no other alternative. Epps needs to add about 20lbs and maybe he's an option down low. Either that or Big E needs to make a huge turn-around prior to next year. I can't see Malone being more than a sub. He's just too weak and will continue to get pushed around. Might be a decent player as a senior.

Martin could improve to a potential lottery pick if he stayed though
He's already a potential lottery pick this year.

People are so fricking spoiled and annoying. There is 1 maybe 2 big men that could come in and immediately impact a team like Martin and mickey. CJJ is doing a ridiculous job recruiting but people still say more more more
Is anyone else concerned there may be a slight learning curve for Simmons? Martin was a top 15 recruit and he struggled his freshman year. I keep telling myself on paper, Simmons is already the best player on our team even if m&m return.

there will be a slight one but he'll have guys like quarterman and hornsby to lean on plus patterson and hopefully one/both of MnM.
he's not as raw as jarell and has a unique skill set and better understanding of how to use it right now. martin also kind of got off to a bumpy start getting hurt 30 seconds into his debut and being in and out of the lineup. mickey by contrast looked great from the jump.
i think it'll take him some time to develop a jumper at this level but he's got the tools to be a multidimensional scorer.
i still wish we got epps more involved down the stretch but he will be another weapon next season.
i aint mad anymore, excited about next year and hope these guys use this to learn what it takes to be a winner, not just a talented team. got to improve in lots of areas though.

Being a consensus no 1 and playing where he has played make Simmons one youcannot compare to previous LSU recruits. Simply he and Blakeney are a different level. Get Malik and that's 3 unlike anything we've had.

Enter Craig Victor Not enough. Got to be good enough up front so that Victor comes off the bench.
If both JM's leave(And I don't think that happens) then Victor will become a starter by mid-season unless he gets his hardship waiver approved. In that case he'd start from day 1.

With the way Simmons' high school is set up, those kids usually adapt more quickly to college. Take Patterson as an example. He wasn't lights out, but he was extremely solid and good, and Simmons is literally 10 times the player JP is. Martin went to a Class B school in Louisiana, so his main competition came from AAU. AAU is just a bunch of individualized play.

That's funny you use three players who only played one year together from over 20 years ago to prove that dude wrong. To clear up whatever that poster's name was, relax dumbasses of this board. We are about to get 2 maybe 3 players who are of higher pedigree than anyone to step foot on our campus since 1992. Johnny Jones may lack in the category of game day coaching but go ahead and try to fight science. Nature vs Nurture. Darwin is un-defeated.
