    I think it's a good fit and he should see a lot of playing time.

    Do you feel the same way about Joseph and Pittman? ;)

    I wish Neltner the best. I hope he leads Vandy to wins over Tennessee, Florida and Kentucky. Vanderbilt seems to be a good fit. He can play that style ball and he is closer to home.

    I wish him well. I just wish he had gone to a non-conference school...I hope he doesn't come back to haunt us.

    I will guarantee nelter will not haunt LSU. The guy was an average bench player at best. 10-12 mins a game. Obviously, Brady saw the guy wasnt all he was cracked up to be and played him the amount of time he saw fit. Neltner probly feels he's a lot better than what he is. The guy is 6'10 and gets every shot under the basket blocked or he missed it. He was good for one 3 pointer from the top of the key ever game or so. I do think it was the best fit for him as opposed to the other schools he announced. Well, maybe with the acception of UWV. He isnt going to light the world on fire. I do hate to lose a guy who can give you some quality ticks off the bench, but it was for the best. I wish him very well.

    Nope, they transferred to us. Just like I love my new girlfriend that broke up with her old boyfriend to start dating me. My last girlfriend I couldn't give a rat's ass about right now.

    Also, I could think of many a player who transferred that I would use in that analogy other tham these 2. One had a brother that died and needed to get away from the situation, the other had a scandal at the old school which lords only knows what he went through.

    Neltnor simply jilted the only SEC school that offered him a chance to play in the league he wanted to be in so bad. He then says it was about the style of play even though hge and his father had months and months to look at programs and picked LSU after watching our style of play over and over again.
