re: Why can't LSU basketball get over the hump?

I think unless they completely fall apart down the stretch, they will make the tourney. I know Simmons coming in is directly tied to his godfather being on the staff, and Blakeney is coming to play with his buddy. But, Jones has proven he can bring in good players and this is his first season with the core being his guys. I think he will be around for quite a while.
