I went from not missing an LSU game in nine years to not attending an LSU game for nine years. It may not have killed it, but it killed it for me.
So you just stopped going to LSU games because of a rule hasn't had much of an effect on LSU at all?
That sounds like a personal issue with LSU Basketball more than the one and done rule.

You guys are basketball-oriented obviously and will take offense at anything I say that criticizes the game. But a basketball PROGRAM (as opposed to a basketball team) used to have a more discernable and enjoyable character over a period of years. It was fun watching a freshman class develop over time and develop chemistry. And the game was SO much better with an experienced team that filled holes every year instead of replaced an entire team.
Take the 1985/1986 UK team with Harden, Walker, Blackmon and Bennett -that's a LOT of chemistry playing against an entire league laden with experienced teams with one or two young superstars. I just miss that level of play, and really getting to know a teams players and tendencies over a period of years. Not to mention the rivalries that grow over 3/4 years. It's just not the same for me.
