fricking pathetic, nobody takes basketball seriously at LSU high up


You really think it's worth it financially for LSU to accept an invite to this tournament?

If our AD doesnt pay up to play in this I'll be supremely pissed.

It's his fault we aren't in the NIT right now because of this stupid 29-game schedule.


I think finishing 9th in a mediocre 14 team league probably had a little more to do with it.

Seriously? We are LSU, we have a ton of money. Schools with 10% of our budget will be paying to play in this tournament.

The money excuse is the stupidest thing ever. Like we are strapped for money compared to some of these mid-majors that will pay to play in it


Fact is basketball is way down the totem pole for the guys in charge. That's why they wont pay to play in the tournament. Even though this team absolutely could benefit from playing more games in a tournament style considering we're losing just 1 starter. Especially considering the AD already screwed up the schedule this year.

We play 31 games in the regular season, we're in. Simple as that.

Winning 2 more cupcake home OOC games was easily attainable, we just didn't schedule it. WAY different story between the 2.

Uh oh we got a negatiger over here... Why don't you just say we suck if you could go ahead and give me some great reasons of why we didn't get into the NIT that would be just peachy. And don't use the bullshite they deserve it more excuse.
