If everybody that should stay, stays, and if we get two or three top-50 recruits to join them, then bring this up next year at this time if we are seeing the same situation.
We don't have a center - period. One needs to develop over the next 9 months.
We don't have a player who can consistently create shots where none otherwise exist. We will have that with Simmons. With the collection of talent returning and arriving, that will become the "it" factor that changes the opportunities for everybody else. Without the shot creator, we are simply too easy to defend. For now, stop any fast break opportunity and you stop LSU.
We have four reliable players and five when all are healthy. Not sure they are all there right now.
You need eight reliable players to contend at the Dance. You need ten to get beyond the Sweet 16 unless somebody completely explodes and takes their game to the next level.
Take stock in the fact that we haven't been blown out. Hope for a close game against Kentucky [win or lose]. LSU is playing to the level of their competition and that isn't a rare occurrence in college basketball. Its a long season. That's why most teams that make it to the Dance that don't win their conferences are measured by what happens the final three weeks of February.
