Do you follow basketball recruiting? I didn't think so. Please STFU.

How successful can you really be when fans care more about the fricking baseball program?

It's so easy to pile on when things are rough. Great post!

I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and say "sample size error". Sadly, I think you're just stupid though.

Absolutely. He was a home run.

How much was really expected? We got optimistic after beating seton hall and hanging with Marquette, but seriously, we have size, length, and athleticism waiting in the wings.

CJJ has us with a top 10 recruiting class.

You're a joke. Did you expect to set the world on fire with what Trent left?

I say yes! Give the man a chance. This team is still disadvantaged. Our guards are undersized. We don't have a formidable front line. Our freshmen have some growing to do. Only time and 2013's recruiting class will tell!

STFU!

the guy is bringing in a top 10 recruiting class in his FIRST year as head coach! It is way too soon to make a judgement call on Jones, imo he has a 3 year window to prove his worth.

Now:

Too early to tell but there is a chance LSU may only win 1 possibly 2 SEC games this season. He'll get 3 seasons to turn it around after his recruits are playing. But Jones can forget fan support now. Gymnastics will outdraw this program the rest of the season.

He was a great hire. He doesn't have the players to run his system correctly. Anyone who didn't expect a bad season this year was dreaming

yes. coach JJ gets a free pass this year due to TJ's recruits.

Let JJ recruit for a year or two and then we will see how good of a coach he is

I think we give every coach 5 years to turn it around and another 5 years for the coach after him, etc. I am too old to expect 4 more coaches to do just that. That's 20 years.

Too early to say one way or the other.

But it ain't too early to say that was unfiltered garbage tonight, and for the most part the last 6 games have been unfiltered garbage.

Bullet has a nice recruiting class coming in. And his son plays at U-High now which has 2 or 3 young high level college recruits on their roster.

So he's got some low lying fruit that he can pick that can set him up for awhile.

But that does not excuse this crap!

We ain't got no great shakes in the talent category. That's a fact. But 3 of the first 4 games we've played this year in the SEC have been played against teams of comparable talent IMHO.

And we lost all 3 in very disappointing fashion.

I'm gonna give Johnny the benefit of the doubt for the future but i'm not excusing what he's gotten from his team the last 6 games.

Garbage is garbage.
