He would have been pushed to play defense. He would not be allowed to sulk when it's a tough night.
Or he went to LSU so he could do whatever he wanted, not be challenged by a tough coach, and not have his draft status hurt.
It was basically a win-win for him by going to LSU. If LSU was going to make a deep run into the tourney, it was going to be all because of Simmons. If LSU was going to crash and burn (as they have done), all of the blame was going to fall on Johnny Jones and not Simmons.

Simmons effort on the court in several games should be discussed. Blame it on JJ if you want but when does Simmons man up? He, and those around him, are just as responsible as JJ for the shortcomings this season.
