You always sacrifice basketball for football

One is a niche sport and the other is your golden goose


Not sure why the rantards keep repeating this. Mens basketball is the only other profitable sport besides football.
You forgot football. Football finished unranked for a second year in a row and a change was made….hopefully coming soon for men’s basketball.
I don’t see another win but I have been impressed w the dog in the fight. Players haven’t totally given up.
I’ve always said PMAC is more fun than TS, provided there is a winner inside. A full and rocking PMAC is hard to beat.

Jay's experimenting, the cream will rise to the top. The only starting pitcher I've been impressed with is Cooper.


Jay probably has the most impressive Johhny Wholestaff, but we are still waiting to see who will emerge as the Ace.

The SEC is definitely stacked this year. Lookin forward to the competition.


yep. Bats usually cool off once seeing SEC pitching. Question is do we have an Ace or really really good Johnny Wholestaff?

2nd time in a week I’ve been told there isn’t money to fire him and replace him.


I think you are talking to wrong people. All signs point to him being gone at seasons end.

Keeps that up and she’ll be gone after this season just like McMahon.

Sure rough start…. But Good thing baseball is 9 innings.

he got rid of woodward, which got us kiffin. i'd say he is very relevant.


Yep....and the rumor mills are in full smoke that both Mallett and Rouse want Wade back as basketball coach, and that regardless of Wade, McMahan will be gone at seasons end.

For a program that prides itself on being the standard of the sport it is severely lacking behind State, Arkansas, and USCE. Chairbacks and all of them being the same color can be a world of difference along with a new batters eye.


Good post. I agree.

And I've always said Arkansas should be the model for LSU to follow. Covered seats/suits all the way down the lines.

That particular store on the men’s side went from really nice, high-end brands (Canali, Zegna, Hugo Boss, Armani) to strictly ethnic and queer shite or a combination of the two.


Yep. Went with my wife several years ago and needed some business wear. Went again recently and said I wouldn't be caught dead in any of that crap.

Its a sign of the times in todays e-commerce world that these huge brick and mortar places just can't survive.

But this is bad for NOLA imo. Thats already a shady area and will likely to get worse.

Just curious, Can you not use cologuard after a certain age? Why doesn't everybody do it ?
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Had the Cologuard test at 50 and it showed no issues. Had to have surgery following colonoscopy at 51. Please have the regular colonoscopy. Cologuard only shows if cancer is active.


This. As my doctor explained to me, cologuard will only pick up certain size 10MM polyps and up, and cancerous ones. But as he said, it will miss if you have some smaller than 10, which is dangerous, because if you have some at 5 and dont do the regular colonoscopy, then it misses those and they continue to grow undetected.

Curious is Moxon just never got tested? I did at age 45 and had a few small ones (less than 3mm) so they removed them. RIP to him...always liked his shows.

This can be turned around fairly quick with he right hire. Look at WBB.


This is true and OP knows it. Basketball more than any other sport can get fixed quickly.
I agree he’s been unlucky w injuries, but he gone at the end of this season.

mpossible to compare one sport against another,


Ok

Football - easily Hallman

Basketball - 1a) McMahan 1b) Johnson 1c) Jones

Women’s basketball - Fargus

Baseball - Smoke
I think they have said all along they will pay upon proof she is still alive, and haven't been given any such proof.

Just FIRE MM ALREADY!


Its basketball. No need to fire him before season is over. Fire him after LSU's season is over.

Most likely candidates will have their teams in the Big Dance, so the timing will be just fine.
