It was a complete rebuild. He’ll need 3-4 years of recruiting before any expectations can beset

Screw that, Kelly had 39 scholarship players when he took over and won the west in year one.

Basketball doesn’t require fielding 22 players in each game. No excuses

Missouri had the same rebuild as lsu last season. They made the tournament with players from smaller schools.

The General didn’t need 3-4 years. Won the sec in year 2!

No offense, but you clearly know nothing about the landscape of college basketball today. In NO OTHER college sport can a program be “rebuilt”/turned around quicker than college basketball. If the mindset is he needs “at least 3-4 year to form reasonable judgements/expectations” then those people equally as clueless.

To answer the OP’s question, I would say if Cook is eligible there is reason to believe this team could compete in the middle (MAYBE a bit higher) of what looks to be a weaker SEC compared to last season. Without Cook it will be tougher.

IMO a reasonable o/u total for non-conference wins is 9. A reasonable o/u total for SEC wins is 7. Hit those numbers and LSU is 16-15. Not “good” by any means. But not horrible either. Anything more and LSU has had a good season with each additional win making the season incrementally better. Less, and the questions of if McMahon can win here will grow louder

BS with the transfer portal there is no way he shouldn’t be fielding a competitive team by year 2. Rebuilds are no longer 4 year windows. They get it done in 2 or move on
