I left during the wars over Josh P, but I did manage to avoid getting banned which means the door was open to come back and read so many familiar posters. I bet there are many others out there like me who will appreciate a place to discuss the Penny Hardaway Tigers. I find most people on here knowledgeable and entertaining, so thank you for posting.

It was painful to see that if we selected someone who turned out to do good things as a coach and really build the program, that other schools would use us like a farm team and just take our coach. Contracts it turns out don't mean much. In my opinion, the NCAA shouldn't allow a coach to break his contract if he ever wants to coach at the college level again, but of course the big thieves would have none of that. But in Penny Hardaway I see someone who I believe won't let success lead him to discard Memphis for the new shiny elite college down the road. Because of that I am allowing myself to care again.

In football, I am not convinced. I am glad we have had a couple of good coaches in a row, but how do you sustain that when success leads to losing your coach and the next gamble. It is unfair to the students they recruited and to the school who's contract they are using as toilet paper, but I can't see it getting better.
