Unless there is an injury, why would we need more than 2 legit PGs.
I know. So silly of me. Injuries never happen.

It's not defamation. The statement has to be made to the public. If LSU officials made suggestions that they may have cause to fire BK under the terms of the contract during private settlement negotiations, that's not defamation. Not even
One could argue that making that claim would inevitably lead to the lawsuit which makes it public.

Even if you don't agree with that, their response to the lawsuit will assuredly be public. At that point they claim to have cause or not.
MacKinnon was guarded tight early (due to game 1) so he deferred to Sutton who torched UNO. Never got into a rhythm after that, but contributed in other ways.

Tamba is like a bigger more athletic Dji Bailey. Hustles and is unafraid to drive inside. Haven't seen him shoot the 3 so he might not be good, but to his credit he isn't trying them and doesn't need to on this team.

The only weakness I see is that we only have 2 legit point guards like Wade had in his last year. I wonder if Zipper can play the point if needed.
All he needs to show is that a single AD turned him down over concern for the "termination for cause".

On the same lines, wasn't the deal that we owed the OC a full buyout if he was fired before Kelly, but we didn't owe it because we fired Kelly 1st? Could he come back demanding a full buyout because of LSU's statements?
LSU is going to wind up paying Kelly more than $53 million.

Anyone know why we have never seen Gilhool play?
Bobbett played. At this point I have to assume the plan is to redshirt him unless he makes great strides. Wish the NCAA would allow players to play a limited number of games and still redshirt like football.

You, I, and several others in this thread should be glad we aren't. :cheers:

And we should I ld feel sorry for those who are. Even if you don't lose your shirt it takes a lot of fun out of watching.
King has played well as a backup shooting guard. Reed is looking better in the 2nd half. Way ahead of schedule.

And as mentioned, here comes Zipper and Mosely.
Even Reece is playing well as a true freshman at point guard. Better than Givens was last year.
Easy to see what Reed can be when healthy and confident.
Good finish to the half. Got cold on offense for a bit.

New Orleans will dominate their conference.
Looks like they have really good size for a mid-major. That always scares me. Two 6'2" senior guards who will play most of the game surrounded by 6'7" - 6'10" in starting lineup plus other 6'9" - 7'2" off the bench. Overall bigger than us except at the 2 spot.

Plus they are probably motivated to come to Baton Rouge and beat the state school after pulling a big upset.

19.5 is a lot of points especially since McMahon doesn't intentionally blow out opponents.
Maybe Green can play basketball this year. They look pretty good.

Well we technically don't have one right now so lol. Can't just get a new interim. Not how that works. We are what we are at this point.
Orgeron would close out the season for a couple million. Not sure he could fix it. The false starts and jumping offsides are on Brian Kelly for being lazy.
Defense has played all out. 7 of Bama's points are on the coaches.

Something is very wrong with nuss


He looks like he is concussed. He saw no pressure to his right then spun right back into the lone rusher.
quote:

What will it take to bench Nuss? Nic is hurt because this fricker cant throw in rhythm and he has to stop and turn to catch a ball thrown behind him
Both injuries were on a run after the catch.
The opposite is true. Start Nuss and pull him if he still has happy feet.
