He was dealt a very bad hand with the NCAA briefing down our neck as a punishment for not firing Wade. But even after this cloud went away, he was never able to get anything going, while schools like Vandy and Mizzou showed massive improvements from being terrible despite not having our resources.

What always surprises me about Z Johnson is her ability to rebound and she is better at getting shots off down low without getting them blocked than the 3 that are taller than her
There is always several good playere coming out of LA, but we don't seem to recruit them. Just like in football, there is always good players that are underated that goes somewhere else and has a really good career.

We need to do a better job scouting the LA players to get these diamonds in the rough. We still have to depend mainly on out of state players, but we need to be gettting the top players in the state and we aren't getting hardly any of them
Toppin is one of the best players in the nation, none of our players come close to being that

Sy'Myah really wanted to stay here, but she was offered a much larger NIL deal than LSU could. She played very well in Virginia's first round game and she definately would have helped us this year.
Smoke didn't understand how to recruit at a big time program. We ended up with about the same talent he had a ULM. He would go after and sign way too many players that had virtually no chance of ever hitting campus. We had very highly ranked recruiting classes every year, but none of the top players ever came here. Skip, Paul and JJ always sign a few of these guys that they think there is some chance of getting them here.
I wouldn't refer to Mondo as the best athlete ever from LSU,
however he is the LSU athlete that is most dominate in his individual sport.

This is a good thing in the long term for KM. If you want to attract the
best assistant coaches, you need to show the ability to develop them and
get them head coaching jobs.

When this happens, other top assistants will want to come here
Really dumb play by the Ole Miss player, one you never really see which probably confused the officials. Same actual result, but they weren't sure if it was a technical or intentional foul since the ball had not even been handed to the inbounder.

It's Joyce Walker and I wonder why we never hear about her.
She is the all time leading scorer, yet hardly anyone knows who
she is. She was in school when I was and is one of the few players
who would thrive in today's game.

I agree that her jersey should be retired

re: Kate Koval is showing out !!

It’s amazing the improvement in a very short period of tie.
A few weeks ago she was a liability against good teams, then
in the roughest game of the year against Texas, she held her own.
Against the lesser teams she is playing very well
If you think the Box is a dump, you haven't been to other stadiums.
A recent survey, which I had backed up by a recent SEC player and grad assistant, that the Box was in a cluster with Arky and SC behind only Moo St.
Tennesse is brand new and 16 years younger, it better be nicer than the box, but hased on the video I would call it only moderately.
Such a same, the receiving crew was geared towards throwing the ball deep very often and unfortunately that didn't happen at all. We saw last year what a healthy Nuss and Hilton could do in the bowl game. Hilton was finally healthy and Nuss gets hurt.

She also shows up to support our other teams, plus her and 3 other
freshmen showed up at a St Michael’s girls basketball game.

This shows what kind of person she is, along with several other freshmen

re: Nets waive Cam Thomas

He could be a great asset to the right team. Put him on a team with
a strong inside game and he can shoot spot up threes and keep the opponent from collapsing inside. JJ Reddick had a long career because
he was good at finding the right team to play on. Thomas is a similar player to JJ, great shoot but can’t carry a team and a defensive liability
I believe Pointer just wore down by the time the tournament started.
Because we had such limited depth, we relied very heavily on her all season and had to play her way too many minutes.
I loved the Bayou Bash, made all but 1 and was upset that I had to miss that one because of work

re: Honest take on Nuss

Posted by TigerDM on 2/2/26 at 8:33 am to
I felt horrible for Nuss and several of the receivers, especiallly Hilton.
Nuss not being able to fling it deep like we have done so many times allowed the defenses to play up and kept us from spreading the field . We really needed to be able to spread the field to help our inferior O line.
We have seen what Hilton can do with the deep ball and that made him basically a non existent part of our offense, when we should have been seeing his 2024 bowl performance all season.

Nuss toughed it out because he knew he was the best option and Hilton played hard on special teams and neither of them complained, so I give both guys tons of credit for being team players

She’s got to get much stronger. The better bigs we play just yank the ball out of her hands with little effort
More proof on how hurt he actually was this year.
One thing you can guarantee about Nuss is that if he isn't thowing
downfield on a regular basis, he's got to be hurt. Until this year, he
threw the ball deep on a regular basis, no way he just stopped.
He came in to LSU extremely undersized.
He worked hard to win allot of weight and
get meh h stronger
