RE: Alex Lomax will play for Memphis
Can't block a release if you ain't coaching at that school anymore.

Drinking your milkshake bro.

No, just not taking the bait.

Just giving the facts man...Penny and Lomax are tight.

Tight? Lomax has lived with Penny since he was in 6th grade. TV guy on state championship stream confirmed it a few minutes ago.

It won't matter. He can sit out a year and go prep, or whatever.

He's trolling. But it's true.

Alo has been coached by Penny for 6 years.

A third of his life. 6 x 3 = 18.

That's fine but it doesn't mean Lomax won't come to Wichita. Lots of kids want to go AWAY to college and leave the nest so to speak. He also made a commitment and that may be important enough to see it through. I don't think any of us know what Lomax is thinking. All I see so far is a lot of unsubstantiated rumors on message boards which means nothing. Hell Penny doesn't even officially have the job yet so we likely won't know anything for a while. We'll just have to wait and see what happens.

Penny will be announced most likely early next week.

Agree. Seems to be a trend around here lately. I would suggest moving them all to the smack board or whatever, but then you would miss your shift at Dairy Whip. Maybe you can delegate to BC1. He seems bored.

If this drags out, it will only result in more denial and message board embarrassment. The good news is, this is just 1 recruit and the sky is not falling (yet). Cheer up! You still have your coach and possibly a decent run in the NCAA tourney to look forward to.

I'm still waiting for proof.

I know. I know. Please see the bolded statement above. It's always difficult to take when you didn't see it coming. It's not you, it's him.

I understand that Memphis fans are as excited as kids in a candy store right now and you have every right to be. I'm happy to see your fan base energized, I just wish ya'll didn't feel the need to take cheap shots and crap on every other fan base you encounter during the celebration.

I totally agree with that sentiment. Some Memphis fans in here are doing just that.

But it's not like CB and a few others haven't done that in spades, since they got here. Even without something to celebrate.

I like you AAA but that might just be the worst idea you've ever had. 03-puke

Don't you know that BC1 and Husky are colluding with the North Koreans to enslave this board? You simply can't trust those two with any sort of power.

I don't expect ya'll to all of those guys but I wouldn't be completely shocked either. I have no doubt that Penny will be able to recruit.

I value Memphis fans. Marshall to Memphis was a done deal a couple years ago. A DONE DEAL.

Again, I trust Memphis fans.

Only if you listened to the idiots. Don't lump all Memphis fans together. Just like I don't lump all Wichita fans together.

As for the list above, the author is the former Memphis basketball beat writer, and now a local sports radio host. With ties in the local AAU and HS community.

And that is for 2019, not 2018.

And every single player on that list happens to be a starter for East High School. The team coached by Penny, which just won its 3rd straight state championship.

So I'm not sure what is so unbelievable about that list. 07-coffee3

So far it just seems all the speculation is from people about what they would like to happen. The only thing that got posted that said anything about what Lomax wants was deleted because it couldn't be verified

It wasn't deleted b/c it couldn't be verified. I heard the same thing, privately, second hand, from someone involved. It was deleted b/c those involved didn't want anybody talking publicly or officially about that, since it's a touchy subject.

But I understand your point. It's just hard to avoid the subject when the recruit lives/lived in Penny's house.

RE: Alex Lomax will play for Memphis
Here is a question. Forget all the uproar so far. Just think about a hypothetical.

Take any recruit with an NLI. Apply this situation. His unofficial guardian (also HS coach and AAU sponsor), whom he has lived with for years, and who helped raise him, gets a job at his hometown major university, and is a living legend there.

What would you think would be the logical thought process for that recruit, about his immediate future?

TBH. It means he's probably learned all he could learn from that coach... If he really wants to improve, he should probably not get the same coaching

I get that. You certainly can't believe everything you hear. However, I have also seen momentum build around Memphis basketball several times. Naturally you don't want to believe it if you're on the other side, but sometimes (especially around recruiting) when there is smoke there is fire.
