    1-5 is a pretty steep downward trend. If my math is right.

    can you describe what constitutes a successful season? i asked a few times and you seem incapable.

    You seem incapable of having a two way conversation, so nah.

    PS: 1-5 isn’t good if you value quality wins and nothing else.

    this is not the actual reason. the reason is you know that by any useful metric you can define, its difficult to criticise the state of the LSU basketball program. and you want to criticise. like many folks you have confused criticism with sophistication.

    i cant take this as a criticism if you have not defined what success is.

    do you value quality wins, like the NET does? nobody knows, you fear discussing it.

    its very easy to break things down into small sample sizes, possessions, games, even fortnights, and then pretend those things are indicative of a systemic problem in the program, when no such problem exists, and the program is actually in magnificent shape by all the metric you are afraid to acknowledge are useful, wins, recruiting, tourney entries, etc. yunno, actual real measures of success.

    i have argued you into a position where you cant even state what you call success. interesting how that works.

    I'd cut him slack if he didn't lie to me. Pinson was obviously hurt much worse than what he said. Spare me the "injury report" bullshit. Him say something different isn't going to change the severity of the injury so why be coy about it? Why say he should miss only a couple of games and 3 weeks plus and he still isn't right.

    1-5 blows! Losing to the hogs is almost unforgivable same with the game last night. If it weren't so ugly I'd watch it again but I feel very confident that we left 20pts AT THE RIM! One of the very first things you learn playing basketball is what that square on the backboard is for. Will Wade needs to remind these gifted athletes that when they are at the rim, if the bounce the ball off of that square it more than likely goes into the hoop.

    Can't leave 20pts at the damn rim, that is just unsat!

    why does the coach care if there is correct info out there on team health? it would be best if they thought all starters were hurt and parker edwards was starting

    False. When the team was winning there were signs for concern, which I voiced. You said WW is beyond reproach. Now, against tougher competition, our offensive shortcomings are a big issue. Instead of admitting you were wrong, you want to hide behind obtuse logic. Not worth having a sincere conversation with an insincere robot.
