Wade sold us a bunch of bullshite before the season. "Muh improved of play, dude can't miss a 3, improved defense, etc. frick that mother fricked and the VCU train he came on. I'm officially off the bandwagon. And don't give me this time to tell bullshite! Kentucky never takes time to tell with elite recruiting classes like we had last year. All wade is is a recruiter and nothi g else. He'll, Jones teams might have played better defense, at least they guarded the three. This sorry fricked suckered me into buying 4 home game tickets this year and made me look like a fool predicting elite 8 like predictions. I e had it with LSU basketball. And this skinny fat fricked was wanting a new arena Hahahaha. On to baseball season.

Damn dude - get a life.

I am frustrated with team as well, but i am not a message board cursing out a team and their coach. How about you take a stroll down memory lane to 2 years ago. have some perspective

In order to be bandwagon, don't you have to win? lol

I do agree with this. Kentucky and Duke have new starting 5 every year and are consistently top 5 teams. It's a similar excuse we use for the QB in their first year starting saying they are getting the hang of things, it's their first year, etc. But schools like Alabama and Clemson make it to the playoff with first year QBs.

This one statement is so wrong that it completely negated your whole post. Calapari always preaches patience with his teams.

Here's what he said about his 2017 team and comparing it to his 2014 team.
quote:

That’s why Calipari is already stressing patience with this team, as he knows the growing pains will be here for awhile.

quote:

"This is a totally different deal. This is kind of like we had in 2014 where you have a good group of kids, you have a talented group of kids, but they're not ready to win basketball games. They're exchanging baskets. That's where this team is.

Tiger fans sure like to bitch and complain, complain and bitch. Can we evaluate everything at the end of the season? I haven't even watched a basketball game this year but LSU baseball fans literally, not figuratively, literally wanted Paul fired 2 years ago because he lost midweek games. He went to the CWS finals that year. Not saying WW will be that successful but our fan base needs to re fricking lax.

Well this is just plain false. I can think of several seasons off the top of my head where they started out slow and got their shite together as the season went on to have a great year.

Last night was a gut punch and leaves little room for error in SEC play, especially if we can't knock off both St. Mary's and Furman. The 2nd half effort, shot selection and general way in which we played was pretty much atrocious. We got away from what worked for us, turned the ball over, couldn't rebound for shite and didn't seem to have much desire. There is much work to be done but the season is far from over.

It is good to know that the rant has some level-headed posters around. OP message was asinine.

I have a feeling people thought you were a fool before you made any predictions.

Ok you dumb little frick. YOU bought season tickets. either you like LSU hoops or you dont. If you bought tickets based on what a coach said in a press conference, you are a pea brain. and save your bullshite. nobody predicted an elite 8, well, except for idiots(see mirror). and if anyone in the media did, who cares about a preseason prediction. the only person that looks stupid is you for posting this trash.

go away bruh

A young team loses 3 games to fla state and Houston, both ranked teams, both games down to the wire.

And a game to a good ok state team.

And the rant is too stupid to know that its wayyyyy to early to melt. Goddamn idiots.

When we go 23-11 or 24-10 or so and make the ncaa’s dont come back and celebrate. And if we go 19-15 and end up in the NIT again, dont come gloat about how right you were.

By the way freshman lead college basketball teams can lose games. Even an all workd team. See Duke, kentucky etc.

Im more concerned with how we look at the end if the season.

yep, the "youth" excuse is almost always a cop out.

Good players with good coaches can be very productive, very quickly, in all sports.

Dude wtf, please dont comment if you don’t actually follow college basketball.

Duke and Kentucky, especially Kentucky, regularly struggle in the early season. Its because they loaded with freshman phenomens, and it takes 10-15 games or so before they start rolling.

Kentucky at the end of the season is a completely different team then the end of their seasons.

Gtfo. I cant. You guys are sucking hard.

It's so comical that people downvote these comments or would even try to disagree. More evidence that some of our fanbase don't follow college basketball at all.
