2019-2020 College Basketball Discussion (Official Thread)

Memphis standing up for the player and telling the NCAA to shove it.

Awesome.
on one hand, it's always fun when a college tells the ncaa to shove it.

on the other hand, word is that sometime in 2018, penny himself gave wiseman's family over $10k to move to memphis. wiseman didn't commit to memphis until late november 2018. if the rumors are true, then memphis is waaaaay in the wrong here.

Oh they are way in the wrong on the written rules but Memphis has no worry about their long-term brand and is just going to let the kids play the game they were recruited to play.

Definitely in contrast to OSU immediately caving to the keep The Machine (tm) going at any and all cost to player/coach.

When you're Grambling you have to search far & wide for cupcakes, but Ecclesia College filled the bill. The founder of EC resigned last year and pled guilty of fraud.

Grambling 147
Ecclesia College 52

Imagine having Ecclesia +94.5 and losing the bet. :lol:
just did a little googling of ecclesia. let's just say that i'm truly shocked to find that a small bible college has been rife with fraud.

I am confused by this. Did they really need him that bad against Chicago-Illinois to file an emergency injunction? Couldn't they have just sat him and filed the court case on Tuesday?

I think logic waved bye bye when the Memphis head coach gave a high school star's family five figures to help them move to Memphis.

Why do anything logical after that?

I'm curious that it took over $11k to move his family from Nashville to Memphis. Seems a little steep for a 225mi in-state move in TN unless they had to get an apt/storage and find a house.

Here's a "I don't want to do the research myself" trivia question for you: prior to #1 MSU starting 0-1 this season, name the last preseason #1 ranked college basketball team to open the season with a loss.

It doesn't take 11K to move anyone that short a distance.

It's almost like they padded the numbers and his family got to keep the difference.....hmmmm
