1) I agree that it is essential that a big man is recruited.
2) This team does not shoot well
3) Even without a center, rebounding is very poor
4) These guys need to have fun! They had no life tonight. I realize the travel was tough from BR because they would have missed their commercial flight to Slc from Houston and had to locate a private plane to get from SLC to BR. However, show some enthusiasm.
5) In summary, tonight shows why Coach Johnson is here. He will get this straighted out.

Trent Johnson just needs time, just like Paul Mainieri had. Of course he got things done ahead of schedule, but just like him Trent for now can only really work with what was left for him. I'm sure he will straighten things out, I've been to a few games this year already and the way he acts on the sideline just makes me feel like he's the guy we need.

The '86 team won without a big man in the middle. They just need to bring back the freak defense!

How much? Brady won an SEC title in three years. How long will it take Trent?

We also went to the game last nite & it SUCKED.

Best part was sitting center court row 15 since many stayed home due to snowy. Also before the game I got to introduce the wife to Mr. Collis Temple & we saw to Randy Livingston last nite - best pure point guard at LSU (not a big scorer) before knee troubles.

How did the rebounding margin end last night? I haven't looked it up but listening to the radio broadcast it didn't seem as bad as I thought it could have been. Was it within 10 boards?

Randy was decked out in a suit at the game last nite & I believe he is coaching D-league in Idaho.

Going from sea level to 5,000 feet and playing a basketball game the same day isn't a recipe for success, either. Not saying it was the reason for the loss, but it had to hurt.

Brady did indeed win sec in 3rd year....... but Brady was building a win at all cost TEAM, while TJ looks to be building a PROGRAM......

Saban came here and built a PROGRAM, Dinardo came here to win asap and worry about next year,next year......

kinda what i feel about Houston Nutt, he can WIN games..... but can he sustain and build CHAMPIONSHIP PROGRAMS?

got bad news for these folks too..... its only gonna get worse befor it gets better....

though many consider GT, QT, CJ, TM garbage, and MT streaky..... we are gonna be woefully bad next year with these guys gone...... the young ones will get exp this year, thrown into the fir next year, start to turn corner in year 3 and hopefully make a lil noise in year 4
