Cedric Russell, a three-star shooting guard from Alexandria, LA and LSU's lone commit for the 2017 class announced Monday that he will reopen his recruitment. Per Rivals.com:

quote:
Kirk told Rivals.com that LSU is still under consideration, but it is important to explore all options.

“As you get closer to actually getting on campus, you want to look at what’s a good basketball fit for you. Looking at that we decided that maybe we need to see some more options.

“He still loves LSU and he’s still considering them, but he wants to be out there and seeing that all of his options are available."

How does this coach still have a job?

danilo•100 months

Sure LSU isn't winning but he is getting players drafted though. Think that would be a selling point for high profile guys

Deafdome•100 months

They are getting drafted off off of talent. He has failed to develope anyone with skills they didnt have from day one as a Tiger.

This is a plus for LSU, the kid is a good player but this gives them a chance at a better player and go for more size down low, he can be replace easy.

Coach Jones.....how many profiles are you going to create

Smart kid...dumbass AD.

Great decision by that kid. I would not want to anywhere near this coach or this program, especially when he has much better opportunities elsewhere.

C3W•100 months

Can't blame him

GeeOH•100 months

Why would anyone come play at LSU without changes?

FLBooGoTigs1•100 months

Both the men's and women's teams are terrible and both coaches will be back. Fire Joe now. Pleaseeee.......

After how terribly JJ handled this talented team, I am not surprised that recruits avoid him like the plague

I hate the fact that we as a Basketball school are a laughing stock. I as an LSU grad here in Austin take great pride being a fan of all sports LSU. Recently I had to almost pretend that I could care less about our basketball program as long as we compete in baseball in football. But that's bullshite I do care and am embarrassed as hell. Untell JJ and Fargus are ousted we are just hurting our future even more and competing the next 3-4 years.

The best players from Louisiana could compete if we kept them all There's players starting across country from Louisiana for better teams than LSU

Scrowe•100 months

Supposedly getting Jones and having CT2 on board with the hire was going to fix this problem, but we've yet to see it.
