LSU Basketball expectations this year...

Going to be one of, if not the best group since the final four team IMO. Is it realistic that we will be a top 2 or 3 team in the SEC and maybe a sweet 16 team this year? Looking forward to what South Of South will say about this. I know next year with Simmons coming we could be a final 4 team, but it seems we could do something special this year as well!!! Im very excited for LSU Basketball this year.

Been doing some preview articles that show up on the home page....

I'm pretty damn excited about this year's team. Expectations should be high. I'd say 3rd or 4th in SEC and a tournament birth is certainly reasonable. From there, it'll all be up to matchups in the tournament.

LSU basketball fans...
Let's pump those brakes a little bit.

I think top 4 is a reasonable expectation. I don't think that we're as good as UK and UF but after that who knows. It's year 3 for Johnny though. It's time to make the Big Dance.

Judging by our multiple second place finishes in these big time recruiting battles, it's imperative we make the tournament

With this roster and the addition of a potentially great bench coach in Musselman, I'll be quite disappointed if we aren't dancing this year.

I expect LSU to demoralize some teams this season that won't know what just hit them after playing the mighty Tigers basketball team.

It's nice to finally talk some basketball. Too excited about the potential of this team. I'm anxious to see how Elbert transitioned from high school to college especially after losing some weight. Jarell and Mickey are going to do big things and I can't wait to see how the offense is going to run with Gray and Hornsby up top.

12-6 in conference; 23-7 overall reg. season. This team is built to beat people up on the glass and play great interior defense. The offense will take care of itself with several future pro players on this team. Hornsby will surprise folks who don't watch his film. Gray is a pretty widely known commodity so he'll not surprise any opponents but he is a great offensive player and defensive disruptor out front. This could finally be the year that LSU takes the elusive SECT title as well. That would give them a high seed in the dance.

It's impossible to put expectations on this team until we see Gray and Hornsby play. I would like to think these 2 are much better than Stringer/Hickey. Especially Gray, I am hoping for a Marcus Thorton season personally. His Texas tech highlights are pretty impressive for a freshman but the SEC is gonna be loaded this year IMO.
On paper, 4th place in the SEC with a 7 seed. Realistically we are still a 9-9 team until we learn to play freakin defense.

At least the sweet sixteen.

Just making the big dance would be good enough for me.

22-9 type of year, should get in the tourney

I predict sec champions and elite 8. Fans should expect this team to be top 3 in the sec and make it to the round of 32.

Honestly I think I will sit back and enjoy this season without solid expectations. I am obviously going to be very interested in watching Mickey and Martin develop and mesh with the new guards.
For the team I would think that 10 losses (top 4-5 in SEC) and an NCAA tourney birth is the goal.
