I'm kinda surprised that he still has LSU in the field at this point. Their resumé is pretty terrible. They look overmatched just about every time they face a quality opponent.

They're Ken Pom #41 and Torvik #42. But yeah, their Q1 resume is shite. I think, they will lose against any team that emphasizes defensive effort. Their offense is basically street all, with no real direction. Oats suspending guys for a game after the metaphor cock off, completely changed the team dynamic and chemistry.

If you hold all players equally accountable, players respond to that. Wade letting Thomas shoot bad shots just because he's a good scorer, is the worst strategy possible. Because it pisses off their teammates. I'll never get mad seeing my team miss a good look. But if they are forcing it and taking highly contested shots, instead of finding someone who has a good look, my language will make a sailor blush.
