I’m sure there’s some violations with taking all the kids you’ve built up relationships with while coaching them in High school to play for you in college. Because there’s zero chance that they weren’t all hanging out on days they weren’t supposed to be. You want me to believe they followed the rules in recruiting his former players?

How about the obvious suspicion of tampering with former players who all signed NLIs elsewhere, but you talk them out of going through with it to come play for you instead. Or the former Memphis guys already playing ball elsewhere that you’ve gotten to transfer in.

Zero people believe that penny wasn’t doing shady stuff in order to have Tubby catch a boot, so he could take his place. Shady enough to say, “hey, don’t go to Memphis until they make a coaching change” to his AAU boys.

I don’t feel sorry for the blue bloods but if they are catching flack for cheating, so should Memphis.

Surely you don't think there was any bending or stretching of the rules taking place in Memphis... especially with their basketball program.
