Penny clearly wants to be a coach. What's worse giving him a chance and he fails or not giving him the time of day when/if we have an opening?

Me personally, if someone gave me a fair shot and I failed that's on me. If I was never even given a shot I think that would sting a little harder. For what Penny has done for the school and the city, he deserves a shot.

Can you imagine how hard it will be to get rid of him if he fails? He is infinitely more important than Larry Porter and a failed Penny tenure will turn us into DePaul because you can't just get rid of him easily.

We are already DePaul.

hyperbole

So you think we are still relevant?

Alternative would be to have Penny on the staff in some capacity with whoever is hired...... just not as a video coordinator!

You may be the most ignorant poster on this forum. Look the definition up before you are offended. In what criteria are we not so much more relevant than DePaul in CBB?

There are three types of people in this world, those who understand math and those who don't.

Can he just finish this year out as interim? I'm intrigued but not sold.

Not quite that level, but where did Kevin Ollie play?

Doubt Stoudamire stays under Penny unless they already have a relationship...

Would be kind of insulting to Damon.

Yep. Takes a truly special talent, skillset, attitude and intelligence to coach at this level. I love Penny to death but he does NOT have what it takes to successfully coach Memphis.

Tell Sonny Vaccaro to buy out JP's contract. Then someone might give a damn what he thinks.

GP and KE floated FSU associate HC, Stan Jones as a possibility.

Obviously you keep Lawson so that leaves one spot for a bulldog recruiter
