Is anyone else concerned about our front court if M&M enter the draft? Sure we've got Victor eligible next January, but we haven't been able to develop Robinson or Epps to this point.

Just seems like once again next year, we'll be missing a big component of our lineup.

Yea, it's well known that this could be a problem. Just have to see how this season plays out before we can worry.

But I mean it's pretty much common sense. we are this far into season and you think that's an original thought? Lol

Both will be in the D league for a year or two.

What about Darcy and Epps? Both will be that much better next season and serviceable big men.

It's January. How about you wait until the season is over or at least the tourney field is announced before you ask shite like this?

Simmons will most likely switch between the 3 and 4! Victor will also start down low.

If you aren't going to enjoy this season, why would you enjoy next year?

Dude are you serious? You are talking about two true freshman who have been in college about 6 months. Not all 18 yr olds transition to college the same. Robinson is 7ft, Epps is close to 6'10", plus we have Odo 6'10", and Malone 7'0". Another year of weights and understanding the college game will go far in their development. It's no different than football or baseball, it takes time.

M & M are not ready for the NBA yet. They are great players but not ready. Let's see how they play against Kentucky who wants to "demoralize" their opponents.

Nobody in the world thought TQ would do what he is doing this year. So give the guys a chance.

LSU is to basketball what Ole Miss is to football. We can rise up occassionally to high relevancy and a chance to contend, but we can't sustain a pipeline of talent so that we can re-load and keep trucking. Should Ole Miss expect to have a strong football program more than once in a decade? No. Unfortunately, LSU is the same way in basketball. Enjoy the rare ride while it lasts and try to keep your expectations in line.
