Great thing about Memphis is they've always been such a close-knit, disciplined, & ego free bunch under Penny. I hope T is ready for there strong sense of warmth & community. Like all changes, it may take just a little while to adjust.
what he needs is some off the court help and I hope he finds it
Hopefully he’ll stay outta the Beale St. clubs, especially after midnight. Calipari couldn’t keep enough player sitters on staff. And the gang situation has gotten worse since then.At memphis? What are the odds? Not much happens in that town that is good.
seems like a perfect match down there:Hopefully he’ll stay outta the Beale St. clubs, especially after midnight. Calipari couldn’t keep enough player sitters on staff. And the gang situation has gotten worse since then.
The only guy I can think of is that Linebacker that went to Alabama. I think it was around when Sabin first got there. He ended up being a beast on their D. Can’t quite remember his nameWhat player football or basketball has left MT through the portal and has went on to do better than they did here from a standout performance level? Like people know their name? This is what I say about the portal. "If they didn't move heaven and earth to get you then, why would they want you now?"
Dobson - Classic example. He had some success here and thinks he's too big for MT. Now, he's at TSU doing nothing. Greg grate went to Jackson and barely played. Would have been a welcomed piece in the puzzle last year.
Jaylin and Riley are probably the ones who will produce at the P5 level but how much? Not more than here. They won't have the same spotlight. There, they are just another body.
In Lenard's case, he has less people to compete with. He could produce. It's all about chemistry. If you don't see him getting minutes early, then we know that he's gonna be another statistic. I think it's harder to go the portal rouie. It works for a player maybe 10% of the time and that's a P5 player. Not a G5.
It goes back before Saban (and really before the portal as we know it) but you might be thinking of Jeremy Pruitt. If I remember correctly, he was a freshman starter at Middle under Boots. He went home for the summer and there was a lot of talk about Boots taking the open Vanderbilt job. So much so, Pruitt was convinced he was gone so he decided to transfer to Alabama and be a walk on. Boots stayed at Middle and Pruitt ended up having a good career at Bama. Afterwards, he went into coaching and you know the rest of the story....The only guy I can think of is that Linebacker that went to Alabama. I think it was around when Sabin first got there.

Sadly, negative crap like this has been happening with Memphis Tiger Basketball for decades and because of it, Tiger Football has been collateral damage in P5 realignment consideration among college Presidents.seems like a perfect match down there:
Report: Mikey Williams facing charges of assault with a deadly weapon

To his credit Stock dealt with Dozier and King fairly quickly. The Dasher situation was a little different though. 😂Every program picks up a bad apple from time to time, but to their credit Kermit, Stock , and Nick have all moved very quickly in showing them the door. Memphis has a history of picking up more than their fair share. Hope it works out well for T.
