It might be tough getting her out of Cali, but Hakeem's daughter would add a nice presence to the Tiger front court.

Katie Antony, the young woman on the right, may be joining the LSU Tiger women's team. She played the last two seasons at Vanderbilt before deciding to leave the team and the initial word is that she would transfer to La Tech. But her boyfriend is at LSU. She may also prefer to stay in the SEC. Katie is a sharpshooter who would complement the Tiger's interior play quite well.

oh please let this be true....we need an asthetically pleasing presence on the floor, and she definitely fits the bill.

geaux pokey!
