What do you want, dopey? Brady has graduated 8-10 kids. Yes, not very good. Nolan Richardson graduated ZERO players at Arkansas. UGA was an academic scandal on wheels. I wish it were much better, but I'm also happy that the program is clean and that the kids who are graduating here are stellar students. Brady has coached some of the best student athletes on campus in the last 8 years - in any sport.
Wow! Yes. We agree. Nolan Richardson isn't the coach at LSU. He's not responsible for this equation. LSU Men's Basketball: For every four players, 3 are run off, flunk out, or leave early for program detrimental reasons, 1 graduates. I don't care about what UGA was, is, or will become. I'm worried about LSU. Please stay on subject. We both agree on the past, present, and future of LSU Basketball... By the way...Are you ever going to tell me whose responsible for bringing all those quitters to campus? Whose the great judge of moral fiber and character that brought all 29 of those quitters to Baton Rouge?
If anyone want to attack this list, here is what I would love to know: 1. Who recruited them (Brown / Brady) 2. Where did they go? 3. How did they do (stats)? 4. Where are they now? 5. Did they earn a degree? 6. What did they say publicly about Brady? Ross Nelter: "I really enjoyed the time I have spent here at LSU," said Neltner. "Both on and off the court, Coach Brady and his staff have helped me develop into a better person and player."
I would love to see this list broken down one by one as well. Surely someone who posts here can do that.
Well, as I feel its my duty as a sports personality, I'm currently looking into these guys on the list.
BB...Realistically now...Tell me if LSU-or any other school-would release something like this... Shawnson Johnson has announced he's leaving for other opportunities. Shawnson, a 6-10 post player from Shreveport, had these comments about his tenure on the LSU Men's Basketball Team.
great...i liked ross... so i guess that means that brady's top five recruiting class pretty much is gone now...i mean we've kep minor and bass but lost kounja and nelly? FIRE JOHN BRADY!
Well, 4 or 5 of those guys were Brown recruits who eventually came out with allegations of being paid by former coachers or boosters. Thats not JB's fault. Renaldo Bratton left, went to SMU and was accused of inappropriate touching of a women. Bad loss for LSU there. Many of those guys left b/c of Playing time. If your going to bitch and moan about how much you play, it's better that you leave. It's about guys understanding roles. Only a few went on to be somewhat stars. There were a few decent contributors. Jamal Harrison was shaqs brother who shaq paid for to go to school. He played in one game. Omar mance was determined to go to Rice. I'm not saying Brady didnt have something to do with these guys, but many of them that left were either not his recruits to begin with or were leaving for P.T.
I think we should focus more on who stayed with the program then those who have left. The quality individuals that have stuck around. CT3 is very successful. Brandon Landry and Jack Warner with Walk ons. Stromile and Jabari who are in the NBA. Ronald Dupree in the league. Other quality people like X. Whipple, Antonio Hudson, Brad Bridgewater, Wolfert, Maravich, Brian Green. those who have stuck with the program, you dont hear anything negative about them. But, what have we heard from the other guys who left? Aside from a few bright spots, how often is Shawnson Johnsons name thrown around? What about Reggie Tucker? Bob Hall? Jamaal Wolfe? People who have stuck with the LSU program are quality guys. They stayed and they'll always be remembered as Tigers. This is not to mention the futures of Bass, Baby, and Mitchell which will probly have NBA futures.
Hey scrappy, good information. Would it be too much trouble to do the players in a list format... Would be nice if we can get the complete list researched.
