I listened, i like what he had to say. With that being said Turner doesn't seem like a good transition player, nor does Stringer.

but i guess he Turner play more 3 and let the other guys play 2.

Jones said in his press conference that his teams will run. Maybe he wants to load up on athletic guards and wings?


This worked pretty well for Mizzou up until the last game of the season. Most of the time they only had 1 true big on the court and they just had to help in the post on defense.

But i hope your right. a new system could benefit him.
With the kinds of kids being recruited by Kentucky (and to a lesser extent, Tennessee and Florida), nobody makes all-SEC freshman "by default" anymore.

still think he is talented enough to score consistently in this league. still a lazy defender and seems to get disinterested if his jumper is off but perhaps he can grow out of it.


guy just needs to work on his timing and delivery a little bit, which hopefully someone on the new staff can help with.

Swilling should have been at LSU all along.

I don't know why people were down on him.

Well, he came out in a year when there were a plethora of wings in Louisiana: Galloway, Markel Brown, Brian Williams, Swilling, Chip Armelin. Plus LSU was recruiting Ralston Turner from Alabama and already had John Isaac committed for the following year.

considering he started and got heavy minutes on a bad team and compiled numbers, and they pick what, 7 or 8 players to All Freshman team, it was kind of by default. Though he was better as a FR than he was last year.

Just when I give Jordy props, he fails to come through with the promised information. If he can't even get good info from Johnny Jones, he needs to change professions.

My guess is LSU won't release anything on signees until later in the week and then they'll put out a release saying they've signed three of them.

Question is whether the recruiting services will have anything in real time.

Yes, it's hard to keep that kind of thing secret. I can't remember the last time a school was the first to announce a commitment.

Sure they do. The other freshman are on the All SEC Team, not the Freshman All SEC team.

Posted by Elleshoe At 1PM is Johnny's intro press conference as well. Odd timing huh. At the PC he'll say he's happy to be the new LSU coach and he's also just received a fax from Rico Gathers so haters can DWI



might be bad publicity for a new coach at a major university to urge all the fans to drive while intoxicated don't you think?? might wanna wait until at least the final 4
