Reid was fricked with by SEC officiating because of a concerted effort to get rid of Will Wade.
Of course. How could anyone deny the league officials got together to purposely limit LSU's least effective starter ALL in an effort to convince LSU to fire Wade?
I hate to break it to you, but Reid was constantly in foul trouble...because he fouled. He was often overmatched by more physical/veteran big men. There were also many times he would become frustrated and immaturely commit a dumb foul. That said, he was also a victim of LSU's "switch everything" more often than anyone because he would end up having to defend a guard out on the perimeter...something he wasn't ready to do last year.

Reid will excell in a new league and will be highly successful.
He very well may. But it helps that he won't be going up against many, if any, Walker Kessler's and Oscar Tshibwe's in the WCC. It will be interesting to see how he performs in Gonzag's non-conf. schedule, which is usually pretty tough.
He's a young Center with solid offensive skill that has to be developed against top level college competition. He's not a particularly great rebounder or defender right now. All of that may come in time...or it may not. But relative to last season's LSU team he was more often than not a liability. Again, that's not to say he can't and won't get much better at Gonzaga. But LSU appears to have sufficiently filled his role for next season.
