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.


There maybe more exciting, but Simmons is the number 1 pick and that carries weight. I think that theory had more to do if LSU was a bubble team. We'd have that over every team with a close/similar resume, which won't matter now.

The Kentucky fans saying he could be AD, KAT, and Cousins are laughable. He's none of those players, and he would have gone to Duke.

"Simmons would have won more games had he gone to a more talented school with a better coach"

Just genius level insight. I expect nothing less from this website.

So he couldn't be those guys under Cal but we've been told all season long by some LSU fans that he could be "the next Lebron" under Johnny Jones.

He could've absolutely been a Cousins or KAT type talent under the right coach (Coach K or Cal). He has that ceiling.
