That's a real thing, podnuh. If you can't look at Sampson and Blakeney and say "those dudes are making freshman mistakes"
"One and done" or at the most, two-and-gone is the new norm in college basketball, at least for perennial tourney teams.
If "those dudes are making freshman mistakes," then JJ needs to coach them up damn quick, or recruit freshmen who don't make those mistakes. Other teams a lot worse than Kentucky and Duke do that routinely.
JJ has one shot to make sugar out of what so far has been a shite show. We are losing from this team:
Simmons
Hornsby
Gray
Quarterman
Blakeney
Sampson (likely)
Next year will be starting over. Then I guess your JJ excuse is, "Oh, he's rebuilding." You have your head stuck in the sand--you post like you think these guys will be here four years.
I'm amazed you don't see how tired, feeble, and just plain dumbass stupid the "we're young" excuse sounds for a college basketball team.
It's dumb as hell to use for Les and football and even dumber and stupider to use for JJ and basketball.

I'll be critical of JJ's offense and refusing to move Simmons to the post, but I'm not sure what you want him to do with Blakeney
He can't throw the ball in the ocean right now. That's not coaching, he's missing open looks
At this point, Blakeney and Sampson are likely staying. If they arent, it means we've turned everything around

We are losing from this team:
Prior to this season I would have been inclined to agree with you that Blakeney would be here for just one season. But what have you seen from him thus far that makes you think an NBA scout would give the green light on him?
I think he has a much higher ceiling than Blakeney, but Sampson was never going to be a one-and-done.

Give Johnny this year and one more. If we are not an NCAA tournament team by March of 2017 , then Johnny will need to clean out his desk and be shown the door.
No more excuses ! and until LSU gets serious about basketball money wise , The PMAC is gonna remain empty. Pure and simple.
