    No big surprise, but still nice. Also, the article points out that John Brady, like Trent Johnson, is one of 15 first-year coaches that have improved their team since last season.

    Trent Johnson
    LSU 2007/2008 -- 13-18 (6-10 SEC)
    LSU 2008/2009 -- 19-4 (7-1 SEC)

    John Brady
    Arkansas St 2007/2008 -- 10-20 (5-13 Sun Belt)
    Arkansas St 2008/2009 -- 13-10 (5-7 Sun Belt)

    Big difference in LSU's record from this year compared to last.
    How do you explain such a contrast?

    Great coaching plus 5 seniors = success.
