Holding his own against AD??? Wow!!! I knew he was good but against Pro players playing that way is a diff story. Looks like we do have a real star here. If Epps and Robinson really progress this year we could be very very good. I pretty much know Simmons will be a great leader and competitor on the floor better than what we've had in the last two so I think LSU will now win the close games we lost last year. We gonna be a better team than I thought even if the two guys mentioned don't progress much. If they do though look out..... Final Four!
