The question you should be asking is would LSU have the audacity to go that length to get him eligible vs what TT did.

---

We are currently adding players to our basketball roster who were drafted and have played in NBA preseason games.

We also tried very very hard to get Sorby here. If we got him and this went down we wouldn’t have any other QB capable of starting.

The answer is yes.

The LSU/Houston game at the Toyota Center was talked about on plenty national websites, but I think they all said the date was TBD.

There will be huge crowds for the 1st couple games, but I don’t want the fanbase to get that lull in enthusiasm for the whole month of December when it’s just a bunch of mid-majors nobody cares about. I’m really hoping for one big name early season home game, but that seems unlikely.

Scheduling games with Houston and Gonzaga means he knows he’s going to have a good team though.

Who knows, maybe we can get brand name team for the ACC/SEC challenge. If the home/away holds true it look like possibilities would be Syracuse, Duke, Pitt, Wake, BC, FSU, GT & ND. Duke at Florida seems like a no brainer for ESPN though.

and overlooked is that Shaq was a work in progress back then, he was pretty raw at LSU but improved with each season,

---

Brown even brought in Kareem Abdul Jabbar and Bill Walton to help Shaq with various big man skills. People love to forget or just don’t care know just how much Shaq improved from the time he stepped foot on campus to when he left.

This sucks for people in BR that get lumped into that yellow abomination

There may not be a single white Baton Rouge resident in the yellow area who is not a crackhead.

Not sure how that map doesn’t go against the supreme court’s ruling, but whatever.

In Baton Rouge, basically every time someone who lives north of Florida Blvd. gets in a wreck they will call Gordon, Dudley Debosier, etc. All they have to do is claim that they are hurt and the big insurance companies will throw $30,000 at them to settle.

The person claiming they’re hurt will barely see anything, but everyone in the firm(young and old) does very well because these settlements are constant.

The biggest losers are the insured motorists in Louisiana. The love Gordon gets for throwing a few thousand dollars at LSU athletes makes me sick.

when a nyc team wins it all, the entire world cares

It’s not that anyone outside NYC cares, it’s just talked about non-stop on every Manhattan based talk/news show so you can’t get away from it.

He signed a 2 way contract last year in the NBA. I’d be surprised if he’s eligible given that the guy Bama signed was eventually ineligible

RJ Luis never played in a G League game. Charles Bediako played in some G league games so it was a no brainer that he’d be ineligible. This could get interesting.

Seems like New Orleans always has a better argument as to why they should host over whatever city got picked. Stadium location, nightlife, hotels, etc. New Orleans really has no argument over Nashville though.

Elected Republicans cave every damn time. Democrats never do. Huge reason our country is so screwed up and struggling to recover.

Ticket relocations for current season ticket holders usually take place in September so I’m sure new season ticket holders will get to pick their seats then too. How soon you get to pick during that timeframe is all based on priority point ranking.
