He had it taped the entire Bama game. Anybody who actually watched the game could see it.

And Johnny Jones will not get fired no matter what happens this year. Some of you are hilarious

Jones will not be fired after this season no matter what. Lsu simply doesn't care enough about basketball, at least to not do it this year. Hopefully if next year is as disappointing as this season is he will be at least on the hot seat for the following year. In other words I don't even think they fire him after next year unless they go winless or their is a scandal of some sort.

What an intellectually lazy reply. I'm embarrassed for the 5 who upvoted this.

How can next year be as disappointing as this year when we wont have the hype surrounding Ben Simmons and possibly not Blakeny either?

You don't know the first thing about his thought process. STFU.


I'm sure not making the tournament will haunt him for the rest of his life... Oh yeah he doesn't give a frick bc he's set to make millions in a couple months. But hey, I'm sure he'll look back at his semester here with fondness

He's said all along he wanted to make the tournament. There are plenty of people who are going to be making or have made millions of dollars that still cared about their college experience

Sucks for Ben. He hurt it at least the game before on a reach in call. He was shaking it at the FT line.

Half of the posters in this thread should be permabanned for their fricked up ignorant commentary. Idiots.

Your post are pathetic. Since Ben has been here he has shown nothing but class and been a great representative of LSU. The guy has done nothing to make people think he doesn't care, he plays 38-40 mins a night most of the time out of position and leads the SEC in rebounding but he doesn't care lol. The guy even attended most of the football games even going out of his way to recruit players for the team. It amazes me how some so call fans hate on our players more than opposing team fans, it's like you get joy form seeing them struggle

I'll give him that, and I've defended him here and I think with reason.

But his defense against Bama, I can't rationalize that. He was mailing it in that game.

True, Ben hasn't overtly done anything wrong or shown a bad attitude. And he certainly doesn't showboat. I like that alot.

But I think what people have noticed is that he doesn't show much at all - either positive or negative. He just sort of exists, but doesn't exert himself emotionally on the floor. Maybe that's just his personality and if that's the case, it's fine. He is who he is.

But it can also be mistaken for coasting and not fully caring. And I don't think it's "hating" when fans notice that and comment on it.

He needs to put some of that millions he's fixing to earn where his mouth is.
If the kid has an ounce of self-respect or pride, he will bust his arse in these next 5 games to get LSU into the tourney.
I refuse to believe he would be so selfish as to not care whether this teams makes it into the NCAAT or not.

This will be extremely comforting to think about when i watch them lose in round 2 of the NIT tournament.

You must be thinking that Blakeney will transfer, because he isn't going to the NBA.

Has Jones been coaching with some sort of brain injury we don't know about?
