Thats a subjective question. They are relevant to me. been to every home game this year minus 1. What is relevent? In the eyes of the media? relative to the SEC? I think I know what you mean.........and if I do, the answer is next year. not because its next yearbut because we will have length on the perimeter that can score and defend

When LSU gets an elite coach

1 full recruiting class, a very disappointing stretch of a few games, and all of a sudden Jones isn't the guy for the job and we won't be relevant until we get a new coach.

Gotta love our fans!




sooo true

Unfortunately I don't think we can get anyone who can recruit the athletes in the south any better than jones...with that being said his coaching skill is average at best. Not to be negative but he learned his basketball from Dale Brown. Props to Dale for getting talent to come to LSU and I love Dale as a person but the guy would never win a debate on the XO's of coaching basketball...I think we all know that.

If basketball is not "relevant", then why do we continue to see so many posts which express such discontent, unhappiness, and downright mental distress over the fact that the team has not won every single game it's played? Yours included.

We all know Football is #1 and Baseball is #2, how long do we give Jones to make the Basketball team relevant again?
One more year. With the right coach in place, it doesn't take long to turn around a basketball program.

Don't know if it will happen with JJ. Too many X/O coaching deficiencies present and plainly visible on this staff. Recruiters only. Get em to campus and fail to coach em up consistently. (You could go find a high school coach in BR to coach better defense)

One more season and if there's not a major turn around of consistency it will be time for Snow Peas to "Bite the Bullet" so to speak and ante up the moolah for an elite level coach. Money talks!
