Need to get a big center and some 3 point shooters again. JJones is doing a good job, I'm surprised and pleased. His recruiting is professional and good. The future is bright. I lived down there 80-88 and went often to games, loved it. Coleman looks good tonight. How much are tickets now? I think they ought to be free for students and high school players and cheap for the general public. Ought to bring entire high school teams to games for the future and recruiting, like Kentucky does. My best friends wife's brother played at Kentucky 30 years ago and they all got in free as a recruiting toll. We had to pay $5.00.

Actually, many of the geriatric fans and fortysomethings that are PMAC regulars, and dare say the diehards that have been season tix holders over the last few decades, are from the DB era.
IMHO, it's the under age 35 Louisianians, and BR resident grads of same age, Tier-1 Univ Texans with no sense of ties/history/lore, and other students from afar, that grew up in the Ritalin/Playstation, flatscreen tv, tv network game proliferation(when once there were fewer games televised), stadium seating movie theatres with DLP, Dolby Surround, WiFi, etc..eras..
That LSU Hoops just hasn't exhibited a fun style previously, nor the consistent results, and let's face it, being a Football school foremost, seems to need either 1977-1981 era Macklin, Ethan, Swat, Hi C, & Co monster teams, or freakshow players such as Pistol, John Williams, CJ, Shaq, Stromile/Jabari, Baby/Tyrus, etc..to get the fans out en masse.
