NCAA Tournament 2000 - LSU playbook: Swift motion

LSU playbook: Swift motion
From Coach's Edge

LSU has surprised everyone this season. Last season, the Tigers finished 12-15 and in last place in the SEC West. This season, they rebounded to finish at the top of the SEC West and earn an NCAA bid.

A big reason for their success has been Stromile Swift. He, along with the rest of the Tigers, has exceeded all expectations and returned LSU to the contender it was in the late 80s and early 90s. But in order for the Tigers to succeed in the Big Dance, they'll have to do things Swiftly.
