ok but how are those guys doing? could they help LSU? I know LSU wanted Galloway but how much and what kind of impact he would have had here is anyones guess.

Monroe signed with G'town before Johnson was even coach. Johnson had about a month to recruit for that first season.

Out of all of the guys listed, Armelin is probably getting the most playing time.

Trent leaving early in one of Galloway's games certainly didn't help his cause if he ever had one.

I think Trent will get his share as time goes on.

First of all, it's not like we've ever had a fence around Louisiana in basketball the way we do in football, and secondly, it's easier to get the guys you want when you have a few years under you're belt to convince the prospects the program's heading in the right direction.

This year, and next year's classes look a little better than what we've been getting. With continued progress on the court, which I fully expect, I think Trent turns this around.

He may never get EVERY player we want from the state but, I really think we're gonna have a shot at a lot more of them.

Actually, if you think about it, as he begins his 3rd year, we have a more balanced roster than we did at almost any time during the Brady era. What I mean is, almost every year that Brady was here, were were either a team full of swingmen with no depth at 4 and 5 positions, or a team with no point guards etc.

If you check the stats you will find that none of those guys are even close prduction wise to Turner and Stringer,except maybe Galloway.

maybe, just maybe LSU didn't like them

maybe, just maybe they both liked each other but a better offer was on the table

maybe, just maybe they both didn't like each other

maybe, just maybe this whole thread is ridiculous because these players are less than 10 games into their college career.
