re: Is LSU ever going to spend the money on a real basketball coach?

True top level coaches generally want to be at basketball first schools

Then how do Florida, Michigan State, Texas, Ohio State, Oklahoma, Iowa and Michigan seem to have pretty consistent success in basketball? Hell, even Alabama, a pure football school with absolutely no basketball history or reputation, managed to find a better coach than we have. Blaming football for basketball's failure is a cop-out.

If anybody in charge at LSU had the slightest desire to have a decent basketball program, we could have one.
