Or is it complete apathy in the administration and fan base? I'm sick and tired of it. The additions of Hickey and Ham were great, but the inconsistency and lack of defense played by Stringer and Turner is inexcusable. Ludwig couldn't play for McNeese, but starts for us. Kentucky might beat us by 40.

Yeah, it sucks. I don't think anyone here can remember how good we were in the 80s and 90s. LSU basketball was exciting and competitive nationally. We can't compete in the conference right now.

They're playing well against a good team on the road. I'd say I'm proud of them tonight.

I'm not apathetic, I am pissed. I can't stand EVERY damn SEC game being such a struggle. I mean every single one.

Man... sick, sick talent. Almost unfair. How good was Chris Jackson? Has there been a guy get more out of his frame?

Oh, I do. I was there.

Say what you want about Dale Brown as an Xs and Os guy, he made LSU Basketball exciting for the rank-and-file fan. Something got sucked out of the program when he left, even though we've even been to a Final Four since.

They could compete if they fired trent Johnson and got someone who could recruit. Or someone who could get some type of offensive scheme

I'm not talking about one page in the book, I'm talk about the entire body of work. We've lost too many games in 2.5 years.

Tired of losing? Hell, I'm still recovering from being mad at a 13-1 season.

On the whole recruiting has sucked, but I give Coach TJ MAJOR ups for Hamilton and Hickey. Those 2 guys can play. However, having three 5'9 point guards is not good. Stringer, Bass, and Hickey might not get off a shot against UK.

LSU holds the 2nd 3rd and 4th highest attended regular season collegiate basketball games bringing in over 60,000 to watch us beat Notre Dame Georgetown and Texas. I laugh when people say LSU fans wont support basketball.

In that case, it was the lack of players provided by Brady the last two years then

As I recall, those were all on Dale's watch.
