JJ was about the last person I wanted LSU to hire. But the best coaches out there wouldn't come here. So instead of being pissed try to look at the bright side. JJ has an upside that is higher than just about anyone in the country. Meaning if he really has learned to coach we will have a good coach that recruits better than TJ did and isn't going to jump ship for any other job in the country.

Of course down side potential is far worse as well than any of the proven coaches. So lets hope that the 2 star of the coaching realm turns out to be a 5 star in reality.

I know this he is better than what we had before. Like I said anyone walking down the street would be better than TJ. So at least be happy that we have upgraded.

I was super impressed with the presser.

He is all in..

And because he is all in, I will be very much pulling for him to succeed and will be taking more of an interest in Tiger Basketball.

Yet another post where the complaint is that Jones is not a coach they wanted because of a mediocre record at a small school. But then at the same time they say anything is better than Trent and we can't do anything worse. Geez, Trent was a big hire. He was coach of the year in two conferences. He had been to the sweet 16, won conference championships, had a good won-loss record etc. A coach's past record does not guarantee continued success.What matters is the here and now and what are you going to do next season, next game. Give Jones a chance.

The thing I took from the press conference was his promise to play up tempo ball and score a lot. Yeah!!! So tired of walking the ball up the court. If we can just get some of those athletic wings to sign we could be great. Hickey flying up the court with Hammink, Coleman and Turner. Oh Yeah!
