I do see that Tiger87 had listed him in his 2018 thread. The mods can take it down if they want.

The staff has been on him for a while. Not really news, but good regardless.

My fault. This got by me. Too much school work and golf with my boys I guess.

so, that is at least two 5 star recruits that we are targeting.
This is exciting. It is a refreshing change from some of the negative off season stuff we have gone thru.
But , it will be more exciting and refreshing if we can actually sign one of them.

We're gonna be fine. I'll wager you the cost of my next prophylaxis. Deal?

Tubby will get 5* recruits undoubtedly. We have P5 basketball facilities, baby! I bleed blue through and through. Let's get it!!!

Tubby specifically told us that Memphis could not get star recruits--we weren't that kind of program.

Has he A. changed his tune. B. gone after them to shut us up C. made this move to prove we can't get them D. forgotten what he said. E. Other

All of the above...who gives a ~~~~ as long as we get them is my take on the matter?

I am not sure...But I believe it is B unless he is actually putting in the work now...He is going to have to pucker up and start playing the recruiting game.

He's been on the recruiting trail ever since the season ended. What are you talking about?

They're talking about the dirty work. Getting your hands dirty working the gray areas. Greasing handlers palms and such.

He's not going to cheat the way your beloved JP did. He got the great recruits but couldn't coach them up.

Amen. Perhaps they really DO care and not just playing golf like some are trying to make us believe. Imagine that!

You want to run to the moderators when folks don't agree with your twisted logic about Coach Smith and take away my points. I will return the favor.

Calling a kid everyday and kissing his arse is not cheating...

Calling the kids hangers on regularly and kissing their arse is not cheating

Greasing the wheels of the players contacts with gear is not cheating (I don't think).
