re: Its 1 game against a really good team.

Jones is only here because of his connections. His prior record would not warrant his job at LSU.
His positives as LSU coach:
1. Better than Johnson ( not really a compliment )
2. Done okay in a weak SEC
3. Made an NCAA and NIT with quick bow outs
4. Recruited a few good players and lucked into Simmons
Negatives:
1. Poor OOC scheduling
2. Recruiting lacks quality depth and the number of 3 and 4 year players needed to build a program.
3. No one discernible coaching strength. Poorly prepared teams too often. Out coached too often. Appearance of being over his head (granted this is subjective, but hard to dismiss out of hand).
4. Too many blow outs on the wrong end of them.
5. Team lacks killer instinct when in the lead.
6. Lost the fans. I go to all the home games. It is pathetic. Last year had okay attendance, but a one off based on Simmons.
7. Teams are generally poor defensively and often get out rebounded. We lack toughness and fire. Effort is too erratic. This is the foundation of a good team!
If the team doesn't make the NCAA (unlikely to happen), we need to find a top notch coach (if we're serious and want to pay for one). Otherwise, we'll continue to muddle along and be mired in mediocrity or worse.

WS won't be a top 5 team. They aren't better than uk, Duke, unc, Kansas, etc.
Are they even ranked currently?

Have we not beaten good teams under Jones
Ignoring yesterday for a second, we've lost to more bad teams than we have beaten good teams. Agree or disagree?

How bout this prediction everyone

Nice bump. Darryl is all kinds of special stupid and his views on politics, sport and pretty much everything. I wonder if he's still knighting for Jones.

They could still win 11 . Doubtful though.

us not making any shots is the cause of this blowout.
the opponent coach defends the whole court.
not making shots is related in some correlation to the mighty Shocker D.
I have seen these guys for years. names change, same expectation.
full court awareness. deny the ball movement.
no one in their right mind expected LSU to beat Wichita.
right now they are around #25. They will be a 6 or 5 seed depending on their conf tournament outcome.
No road trip to the NCAA for LSU.
LSU fans will be home, picking out new golf clubs.

Of all of Darryl's statements in this thread that are/were proven to be wrong, this one is the most painful reality we face:
This is extremely untrue, unfortunately. Jones took over a program with very little to hang its hat on...and he will leave it in just as bad of shape. In the end, he had a small amount of short term success (relative to his predecessor), but the long term program building will amount to zero.

I would own you in any conversation had on this site. Get on my level before you mention my name.
