Dennis Rodman made a good living with those qualifications.

Good point only trouble we won’t be in n that close a game with Ole Miss for him to shoot FTs, he’ll be on the bench after a 12pt 14rbs game

There is a team playing for a national championship tomorrow that has had tremendous success with guys in their lineup like Chest. In fact, one of those guys, Tugler (from Monroe) was huge in the last two minutes with putbacks, rebounds, and block to fuel Houston’s comeback

But hey, if he can’t find a role with an “X’s and O’s master like McMahon, he probably won’t be able to have success under a bum like Beard

He spent a few days at Bama. Surprised Ole Miss was able to outbid them.

Seriously? Chest would have been a horrible fit at Bama. 1-5 have to be able to shoot the three in their system and that isn’t him. He’s a much better fit in the OM system under Beard.

Corey chest’s was less detrimental to the offense than spears, givens, Bailey, or fountain. He was also just redshirt freshman. I can’t speak for his attitude or what happened behind the scenes, so maybe it’s best for both sides he left, but to act like he was a garbage player is dumb.

We'll be fine with Reed and Robert Miller. Miller has some Tim Duncan in him. Just needs to be developed.

More like Corey No Chest
More like Corey's chest wants to win an SEC Championship and play in the NCAA Tournament.

More like Corey departing a Sinking Ship before it sinks and would prefer playing for Captain Beard!

Omoruyi shot 0% from 3 and started for them.
The year before, Pringle started for them and shot 0% from 3.
The year before that, Bediako started for them and shot 0% from 3.

Chest is a good player. I suspect that LSU worked with him on his offense / free throws all of his redshirt year. Sometimes that stuff takes a while before it kicks in.

He might have a decent (hs level) jumper next year, and I guess his free throws go north of 50%, maybe even hit 60%.

Don't know why he left as McMahon was loyal to him and gave him a lot of freedom this year. He will probably have to accept whatever minutes Beard gives him and accept a role.

“Miller has some Tim Duncan in him.”


There isn’t a single comp between these two players.

Right and those guys are all 7 footers who aren’t in the game at critical moments. They didn’t fit the system either. Nelson has been their 5 when it matters. Chest isn’t 7 foot and doesn’t shoot the three.

Tim Duncan in him, you serious, My bad you’re right I think they tie their shoes the same way”the ol double knot half hitch” That’s it I love the comparisons on the rant, always bizarrely out of left field.
