Report: Johnny Jones Out at LSU After SEC Tournament

The Coaching Carousel is turning and reportedly taking LSU’s Johnny Jones with it.

Jones will be out at LSU after the SEC Tournament, according to the New Orleans Times-Picayune.

LSU is 10-20 this season with a 2-16 record in the SEC. He has just been to just one NCAA Tournament in five seasons.

A year ago, LSU failed to make the NCAA Tournament despite featuring eventual No. 1 pick Ben Simmons.

N.C. State coach Mark Gottfried coached his final game Tuesday in a 75-61 loss to Clemson in the ACC Tournament in Brooklyn.
