re: The 1982 Season

It was a great season. I was a senior in HS. The loss to Mississippi St crushed me.

I remember Dalton running wild against Florida. Bear Bryant told Stovall "that was the worst arse whipping we have had at Alabama ".

I started LSU the next year. We were so stoked about the season. My roommate camped out for Student date tickets. Some guy named Bert Davis was leading the cheers and drinking all night. He may have later been admitted for alcohol poisoning.

Great memories....
Jada W is a big get. I dont know enough about Reynolds.

We need a 3 point shooter and two physical centers.

I like Jada Rs shot versus Jada W but like Jada W for every other facet. Jada R was not an elite PG last year. She improved 150% over her freshman year but we cant label her as a big loss. I was her biggest fan and hated seeing her leave... but look at her stats and consider what her loss really means.

Never seen her play , her assist to turnover ratio is very good which is what you want from your pg but looks like she needs to work on her shot , 40 percent and 30 from 3


I am hesitant to celebrate her assists because she was playing with that large center. That likely inflated the #s. But... I love the addition and think we have upgraded the position.

Serve her and her shithead dad right if Campbell lied to them—“Oh yeah, you’re a guaranteed starter with at least 30 minutes a game!”—and she ends up coming off the bench for 15.


We have no dog in that fight. I am glad we found out about her in her freshman year. I wish her well. She seems like a good lady. I know she hated lying on FB live with Kim.

We need bigs!!


Bigs cant do anything without a good point guard. Kim has a plan and it makes sense to me. Tackle the need at guard first, then move to bigs.

I agree we need some athletic bigs.
Looks like a good get for PG if we can seal the deal.

Thoughts?

Well, at least she had the class to leave a goodbye message.

Jada Richard - Nothing, yet.


I think Jada is bag hunting.

Just saw her FB live post with Mulkey last week killing those pesky transfer portal rumors.

She is a liar and doesn't belong at LSU. Please, please dont re recruit her. I wish her the best next year.

In the early 70s my dad scored LSU tix and took my mom. We were pretty poor but I remember my dad wearing a sport coat and mom a dress.

Was this common at the time? Dad would have been around 26 and mom 24.

I hope she isn't playing NIL games. That would be disappointing. I am hoping she sees an opportunity somewhere else and wants to take it.

Either way... I will miss her game. Best wishes Miss Bella!
I love Kate but she has jello hands. Not sure that can be coached.
Love that guy. I hope he is our POTUS in 2028

It gets on your hands. When peeling, your hands transfer some of the seasoning to the tail meat pieces.

That is the science behind it.
Cassidy needs to STFU and take his L. He refused to debate in 2020.

Sometimes life does that to us.

BTW.. I dont like Letlow, Cassidy or Fleming. All are self serving establishment Swampers.
If we could only have players like McNeese had last year. If only.....

We should be in the tourney every year. Every coach before him consistently had teams in the tourney.
She is like Les Miles. She can win when her teams have a considerable talent advantage. I dont see her winning games against teams with similar or better talent.

If she can recruit and retain superior talent, the sky is the limit. Otherwise, we are like Les Miles football. We will win alot of games but melt against equal talent.
I missed being a boomer by one year. I was born in 1965. The ridiculous outrage against Boomers (probably me included) is comical.

I'll take tge bait. Give me my social security contributions (no interest) when I hit 62 and tell me to have a good life. Do the same with Medicare.


Nope... the men would foul early and often. The women can't make free throws. Best defense ever!
