[quote]Maybe the guys want to play and aren’t concerned with your embarrassment over this.[/quote] Love this answer :bow: :cheers:...
You are correct . I know many of them and in fact, we are (very) minor boosters of the program, ourselves. Matt knows everyone and is grateful to all. I’m guessing quite a few of these posters on this thread haven’t actually been to any games in the PMAC this year. If they have been, and paid att...
[quote]I don't know if I'd throw Tom Crean out there as the spokesperson for playing. [/quote] I’d take his opinion over many TD posters. He, at the very least, has a huge amount of experience and insight into how players think/feel. [quote]No different than football players opting out of non...
Watch an actual college basketball coach (as opposed to ignorant TD posters) educate on why a team SHOULD take the opportunity of going to the NIT, and why excuses like needing to recruit or address the portal, are just that, excuses.:[link=(https://youtu.be/ZxY_EEU5kCQ)]LINK[/link] And as I said...

[quote]Woooo we in the not good enough tournament cause a team that has a better basketball program doesn’t want to be in[/quote] “Better” basketball programs DO want to be in the NIT, though. Even Calipari era Kentucky wanted to play in the NIT when they didn’t make the NCAAT. They went I...
[quote]I’m looking forward to watching . Good tourney experience. A little NIT run, 9-9 in a tough SEC. Played better, upset some teams, and lost some when they shouldn’t have. Next year, get more consistent and let’s see. [/quote] Well said. You summed it up perfectly. :cheers: If LSU ...

[quote]Try playing Fountain and Reed together some, especially against more athletic teams. You don't really lose much rebounding or defense because neither Dean nor Baker are very proficient at either and you get more defensive versatility, especially on high ball screens that teams run at Baker an...
I think I prefer a longer run in the NIT, than lose in 1st or 2nd round of the NCAAT this season. Would be fun to host the first game in the PMAC....
Hope so. Vandy is a difficult place to play due to its weird court set up and Jordan is the only current LSU player that’s ever played there. He needs to lead the way. :geauxtigers:...
Can we win three in a row? YES we can! :geauxtigers:...
We’ll be there as always. Tough matchup for us tonight, but it’s possible to win! (Kentucky has 5 players that feature currently in most NBA mock drafts. And we …………don’). ...

[quote]The first row of the PMAC is separated from the court by two rows of press tables and a walkway. Even the baseline student section is 30 feet from the court with nazi marshals galore. [/quote] This is so true. The PMAC configuration just doesn’t lend itself to a feeling of immense fan pres...
[quote]Vintage third-world officiating[/quote] Doug Shows was one of the refs. He officiated all 3 of our games. ...
[quote]I don't think it would have mattered and would have been fairer to the "student athletes" that they claim to care about.[/quote] There are many people on this board criticising all our scholarship players for going to the transfer portal. Ever thought that one of the main reasons for th...
[quote]The man loves lsu and does everything to promote them on every level of basketball. Does it come with a price? Sure but not money so all is good.[/quote] I hope Collis shows up at more games this season. He’s not that supportive with his presence....

[quote] If Gaines could learn to play with some control/discipline the sure.[/quote] Apparently, according to a very reliable source, Gaines was already leaving before WW was fired. Whether or not he’ll change his mind now we have a new coach, who knows. I don’t think it was due to WW. Gaines...
[quote]Or… If Drew were leaving Tang would likely be a front runner for the Baylor job, no? Maybe he’s leaving for KSU because Drew is staying at Baylor.[/quote] Good point. :cheers: I love the speculation……and patiently await the actual hire. :lol:...
[quote]Everyday it drags on without Scott here the less likely he is to come. Scott Drew has been out of the tourny now a few days. If you are going to get him you have to make a move soon. [/quote] I’d like to add to the Scott Drew speculation: “ Kansas State is finalizing a deal with longtime ...
[quote]Woodward has been away from Baton Rouge for 2 weeks now. There’s a reason a phone call was used in firing Wade.[/quote] This is not true. Woodward was at SEC tournament on Thursday. I know because I talked to him. He was back in BR on Saturday. Wade, Armstrong and Nickelberry were calle...
