LSU basketball will be better than you think next year.

I know we all love to pile on for fun - but they hired a good coach.
He won his conference in 5 of the 7 years he was there. His worst record was .500.
He knows basketball and he knows how to find talent.
If this was the SEC from 10 years ago, he would finish in the top 3-4. As it stands, he will likely finish just below the middle in the league.
I think they will be better than Georgia, Miss State, Ole Miss, USC, and Vandy.
Downvote all you want. Heck, you can even bookmark it.
But heed one warning: Willy T will probably use your negative comments about LSU in this thread against you in the future.

Doesn't matter how good of a coach he is. His 2 star players won't win many games in the SEC.

People forget about how different times are in regards to turning over a roster these days. It’s not like when Brown left and Brady had to trawl the lower juco ranks to compose a team.

He went 31-3.
I think that LSU absolutely hired the right coach.
They might be right back at it in 2024. Sucks to lose 2 years for nothing, but LSU has a whole State to draw talent from.

That shouldn’t be that hard to do, considering what I’m thinking.

I don't think the Sig Eps or Phi Delts or whatever IFC team LSU asks to wear the purple and yellow will be able to compete with legit SEC basketball players.

Since LSU fired Will Wade, the Tigers have lost 11 players to the transfer portal, two players to the NBA draft and all four players committed in 2022 and 2023. They have zero scholarship players from this past season still on the roster.
Will LSU even field a team next year?

I agree and the most important part is COACHING
He will have a much better offense than WW ran a street ball pick offense.
If he gets KJ Williams that could be 3 starters from a 31-3 team, as they know how to play together and they know his system.
I played in a class B school and we had 4 white dudes and a black point guard. Our center was 6'2" and we were 5'11 and 6'1" (me) at forwards and 5'10" and 5'8" guards. We beat the snot out of A, AA, AAA and even played 4A and 5A teams who had 6'7, 6'5, 6'4", 6'2" and 5'10" starting lineups and we would hold our own and keep games to 5 points and sometimes win them.
What LSU could have as starters with experience in a system, with a proper, disciplined offense could look like:
Juice Hill 6'
Hannibal 6'2"
KJ Williams 6'10"
Kendal Coleman 6'8"
Fudge 6'8" (lets say he stays at LSU)
If that team plays well and runs the system they have been running, then LSU will beat a lot more teams than these doom and gloom ranters think.
WHat if LSU gets a 4th player from Murray in Burns at 6'7", then they could have almost their whole 31-3 team, with maybe the Belmont transfer, plus 3-4 LSU guys who might be back after checking out the portal. Sprinkle Cornelious Williams and a few more high school recruits, then we actually have a decent team considering the unknowns of sanctions.
Coaching! Sure, 4-5 star talent mostly prevails but a decent TEAM with good COACHING equalizes the outcome of games.

I thought it was a great hire, given the circumstances.
