    Jones has talked about the need to have a balance of the "one and done" types with four year guys. There is no doubt that unless you are Kentucky you have to take those three and four star guys, sometimes lower, and develop them to be role players their senior, maybe junior year. This element is as important to any team as any one or two superstars. I don't remember the interview but I remember him addressing this very issue. Now, the part that I worry about is how well does Jones develop talent and that is something that we wont really know until some of his lower starred recruits reach upper classman status.

    If we can get Josh Gray to play under control, that should be a sweet 16 team.

    Probably because LSU is losing some major inside presence with Martin and Mickey leaving. Simmons will be better than either, but he won't be better than both. And he's starting from scratch, whereas the other guys had 2 years experience each.

    This guy is more like class of 2018 I think, but is Shareef O'Neal coming to LSU? Shaq's 6 foot 7 inch high school freshman son.

    But Jarell Martin and Jordan Mickey have signed with an agent?
    Because both are falling in mock draft ... is impossible to see at least one of the two with the tigers next year?

    Which is the date to withdraw from the draft?
