you dont need to replace a player that was never on your team, thats not how it works.

if i buy a scratch off lottery ticket and i lose, i dont have to replace the money i didnt win.

to answer the question you should have asked, yes, they do have a center coming it, josh gray a 7 footer who is 31st overall ranked center.

every school in the universe except one is also in the situation of not having gotten cisse. none of them came as close as LSU did. as you may know, there was a global pandemic that made travel and school visits difficult. so cisse stayed at home.

again, wade has the 6th ranked recruiting class coming in. there is NOTHING to criticize with his recruiting.

when your coach recruits a top 10 class, you praise him. you dont call him out for not getting every single possible player on earth. save your criticism for when his recruiting class is ranked outside of the top 10.

this sort of sarcasm is childish.

again. will wade has a taken a program that was a catatrophic disaster, and turned it around virtually immediately, to the point where he is recruiting 5 star players, he won the SEC, and has been, and will be making the tournament every year.


you tell me the standard for success as LSU basektball coach? do you want a national title every year?

do you want elite 8 every year? tell me exactly what you think is required.

you are making this up, this is dishonest. you dont know what he could have had.

how could you possibly claim to know what was possible? who do you think you are?

Faced with a hole to fill along its frontline, LSU finalized its roster for the upcoming season via the transfer portal.

Bryan Penn-Johnson, a former four-star recruit, gave his commitment to LSU on Saturday after spending two years at the University of Washington.


“I chose LSU because of the success they’ve had in the past with guys like me,” he told Rivals.com. “I think I could come in and help them in a similar way that

Kavell Bigby-Williams did.”

Penn-Johnson will not be asked to be a consistent back to the basket threat on the offensive end but rather someone that uses his size and giant 7-foot-7 wingspan to block and alter shots at the bucket. He has good mobility as a rim-runner, competes with a solid motor, has good hands that he uses properly on both sides of the glass and can free up ample ground for his offensively inclined guards via the ball-screen.

“Looking at the roster, I think I could be a guy who comes in and does the dirty work,” Penn-Johnson went on to say. “I can bring rim protection, rebound and set hard screens.”

The rising junior will push for a waiver to play immediately in the fall. The Tigers do not have many true centers on its roster beside incoming freshman Josh Gray so, if he is granted immediate eligibility, Penn-Johnson could see quality opportunities from the get-go. The Tigers will now focus on its 2021 class but already sit with two commitments coming in the form of top-50 center

Jerrell Colbert and three-star
Bradley Ezewiro.

Cisse was a lock until Vitale started running his yap.

That’s ok, we have a different view. You are in the “Miles is winning, don’t criticize him” camp. I’m in the “I love WW camp, but he has some responsibility in all this” camp.

There are more folks in your camp.

I seem to recall having Josh Gray on board while leading the Cisse sweepstakes. And not every program in America was leading that sweepstakes.

Not great arguments to prove I’m being childish. My statement is true, even if you don’t want to hear it.

Awesome!

i wonder what the parameters are in terms of getting the transfer waiver approved. NCAA isnt exactly transparent when it coes to how shit works

its not that our views are just different. its that i am right.

"My statement is true"

no it isnt. you cant know what was in cisse's head or if wade did anything wrong to lose him. for all you know wade never had a chance and only through miraculous recruiting did it appear he did.

Who knows where he might have signed if he had been able to travel and.spend some time on campus getting to know the other players? Ja Morant no doubt had a big part in talking him into staying home in Memphis

watching vids of this dude, looks like he was in math class and then he was damn near 7 feet and decided he better play ball. seems kinda uncoordinated

exactly. we cant call it a failure of will wade
