re: Has LSU ever been ranked #1 in basketball?

I could've sworn LSU was pre-season #1 that year, at least that's the way I chose to remember it. There was huge hype for the "twin towers" and I remember Roberts being a bigger recruit than Shaq if I'm not mistaken. CJ had probably the greatest freshman year in college basketball, evah! It was justifiable to believe the hype. I haven't been as excited about LSU basketball since.
