    our win over KY is great help to the NET, as they are shooting up the rankings. we lucked out and sahvir wheeler and tyty washington were hurt vs LSU.

    Two wins against Texas A&M really got y’all excited. I expect to return to our losing ways today.

    I’ll view this season as a failure if we don’t at least make it to the round of 32 and play hard. That would be a step back, particularly in light of how hard we fell once we hit the SEC. If we follow this season with a weak 22-23, I might be on board the cut bait train.

    I hope the issue really was missing Pinson. I just don’t think so. In WW’s defense, missing Miller is probably huge. But his adjustment has looked bad the last month or two.

    I’m taking more solace in women’s basketball than men’s right now. That’s a hell of an indictment on Wade.

    men have higher net ranking. weird you dont call out mulkey for poor performance. the net ranking is the most important metric.

    well dont be too optimistic now.

    we are currently projected as 6 or 7 seed, which means we would face a 10 or 11, which means the odds are they would reach the round of 32. but be my guest, be a pessimist.

    by all means lets imagine future failure when the level of talent coming in is massive. would you also like to hire kermit davis? who would you like to hire?

    are you mad negative about other stuff too? like are you disappointed with joe burrow because he might lose his next game and suck next season? thinkin about which QB cincy should draft?

    I also expect LSU to lose again today simply because WW is a complete idiot! He's the only coach that doesn't make any in-game changes because I've come to realize he doesn't know how. A small group of LSU fans think the program is back because they beat lowly Texas A&M, who is now on a seven-game losing streak. The reality is WW can buy players, but has clue home to make them better players while at LSU. Cam Thomas was a prime example last year. He scored a lot of points because he was allowed to shot anytime he wanted and he did! Thomas took some of the stupidest shots that most coaches would have benched him for doing. Thomas was playing for his spot in the NBA draft, period. With WW, that's his coaching style? WW's selling pitch to these recruits is I will pay you a lot of money to come to LSU and you can shot as many times as you want. Talent will win you some games against a few tomato cans, but when a game is close and it comes down to coaching, 8 out of 10 times LSU is going to lose because of WW's lack of knowledge when it comes to Xs and Os. Can anyone name one player that has improved under WW's coaching? There isn't one because WW is an absolute buffoon of a coach! His HC coaching record speaks for itself! WW's teams have had double digit losses in six out of his 8 seasons as a HC and he's going to reach that with ease in a couple of weeks! In his 5 years at LSU, he has lost 49 games! The numbers don't lie!

    I stopped reading right there. If you have an intelligent and fact based argument I will listen but this demonstrates that you actually know very little about the game. You have allowed your ignorance to drive yourself right off of the cliff.

    "the program" wasnt gone or down or away because of a two week stretch. try to take a longer view.

    incorrect. this is just you imagining yourself to be an X and O strategist.

    seems like eason, for example, has improved tremendously.

    true. its terrific. i dont think you have looked at it.

    the wise man judges wins and losses, not just losses. wade will always have, for example, an extra loss compared to kermit davis, because wade is in the tournament and davis isnt.

    you guys can make some coin on these brilliant predictions, as miss st is a 6.5 pt underdog. good luck!

    maybe you guys are smarter than vegas and can parlay that into some dollar bills

    Don’t have experience gambling, not sure I’d gamble on LSU.
