He is exceptional recruiter! No doubt about it! I saw that immediately when he was at North Texas. I thought LSU should have been hired him, and didn't know why they hadn't. After all he is the prodigal son! But since I've watched starting last season I've come to see how bad a coach he is. His teams are unorganized. He calls TO's at bad times. Call TO's when they are playin well. Nuts! His teams are jekyll and hyde! Lack fundamentals badly! I could go on and on, but I won't. I like Johnny Jones, but maybe he should turn the coaching reins over to someone else on the staff.

Mickey and Martin damn sure shouldn't go to the pros. And with No 1 Ben Simmons comin in these guys can be special! but they will need some serious coaching up!

We should at least have someone on the bench that they are not afraid to put in. Somebody that can play a little.

you can blame the coach and some blame is deserved, but:
11 missed Free Throws did us in...

Free throws do 2 things ..BESIDES the obvious points
a) it demoralizes the team trying to catch up if they are made
b) it encourages the team trying to catch up if missed...and at some point, it puts DOUBT in the player shooting the free throws.

I saw players "aiming" their free throws at the basket, rather than "shooting" them...
they seem to believe that there was a greater chance of missing them, than of making them.

I agree with all of this. Blame needs to be put on players AND coaches


sorry that one was ALL on the players. Sometimes the ball just won't go in the hole. No explanation of why that happens, sometimes it just does.
