What was the recruiting pitch that sealed the deal?

His Godfather is on the coaching staff. Otherwise LSU had no shot at Simmons.

I think his godfather is an assistant coach there, if I'm not mistaken.

He's likes playing in front of a half full home coliseum for a school that doesn't appreciate their basketball program?

Didn't you see last night's game? He came to learn man to man defense to prepare for the NBA

Why not? He obviously doesn't care about playing college ball as evidenced by his nonchalant ways on the court. Yes, he amasses good stats but he plays with zero heart. I honestly can't remember another player who appeared as dgaf as he does. Johnny deserves criticism but so does Simmons, IMO.

Regarding the theory (ehh maybe until the last few games) that LSU would get into the tourney because of him being a star player people wanting to see. I didn't get that either, he may have all the talent in the world but there's more exciting players to watch on pretty much every team.
