Yes I pay for a subscription to ESPN and I am sorry that I can't link the page but I will link the part of the article where Jeff Goodman talks about LSU.

quote:

The Tigers lost their frontline duo of Jarell Martin and Jordan Mickey to the NBA draft, but Johnny Jones brings in the nation's top-rated freshman, Ben Simmons, in addition to another talented frosh, scoring wing Antonio Blakeney.


He has them as a Seventh Seed. His 10's are Providence, UCLA, Notre Dame, and Louisville. Jesus!

As far as the rest of the SEC...

1 Seed - Kentucky
5th Seed - Texas A&M
8th Seed - Vandy
9th Seed - Florida
12th Seed - Georgia

Sweet, we're already getting better. Lunardi had us as a 9.

His seedings sound a lot better than the shitty ones lunardi put out earlier today.

And eamon brennans rankings blow too.

If LSU is a 9 seed with the talent we have next year, coach JJ needs a new job

It's the day after the national championship and they're already predicting the seeds for next year's tourney....this is absolutely ridiculous

We have no reliable point guard or center going into next season. Our bench is thin and shaky once again. We lose two quality players and add two quality players. I think we will do better than a 9th seed but it won't be easy. We must have more consistency on offense, better decisions, fewer turnovers.

Can Victor take Mickey's place as a rebounder/defender and stay out of foul trouble? Hype doesn't win games and just because we have new players coming in with lots of it doesn't mean they will live up to it.

Why did they not put us high enough to make you happy?

Malik Newman. He will be a Tiger now that Mickey and Martin are gone. He can be part of a dangerous trio and be near his home. Miss St isn't going to be a winner in 2016 and LSU will be. Malik Newman knows this and will be our PG along with Hornsby and Blakeney in a sick Guard Trio.

Did Patterson or quarterman transfer or declare? Dumb comment.

I don't believe losing the M&Ms helped with Malik. While he wants to play alot and be a major contributor, he also wants to win. He won his HS state championship all 4 years... He doesn't want to lose a single game. Losing two great players at different positions than himself didn't help our recruiting him.

I don't see Arkansas missing the tourny even with Portis most likely leaving.

Excuse me if I don't bust a nut over a possible 25th placed NCAA prediction.
