Josh- You know what you have to do.
Gary Parrish @GaryParrishCBS
Keelon Lawson told @CBSSports that he’s interested in becoming a college assistant. In a related note, he has 3 elite prospects for sons.

Highest bidder wins. I hate publicly rolling in the mud like this and it sets a terrible precedent for pastner. Pearl will roll out that $ though.

The guy doesn't pull any punches. Makes it clear that wherever he is coaching all 3 of his sons will go to school.

Agree, it's not worth it to cater to this clown

Parish had to edit that interview to make him look as bad as possible...

If you don't have better options...Hire him. 3rd assistant works for me...And do coaches kids take up schollies...I thought they got free tuition.

RE: Josh- You know what you have to do.
Quote:Yes, K.J. Lawson committed to Josh Pastner's Memphis Tigers last October. But Keelon Lawson indicated that would change if he lands a college job outside of Memphis.

"With loyalty to Josh, I would ask K.J., 'Would you want to stay [with Memphis] or would you want to go with me and Dedric?'" Keelon Lawson said. "But with us being a close-knit family, you know what the answer would be. He would say, 'Dad, I'm going with you.' So, of course, K.J. would go with me, and then Dedric, and then Chandler."

Translation: The school that hires Keelon Lawson will get three possible McDonald's All-Americans in a five-year span. That's the simplest way to describe this situation.

There is no way I would put my child under this kind of pressure, very disappointing.

Personally, I don't think the kids are worth it but what the hell do I know?

I have no problem with him doing this. He's been in coaching long enough. I'd sell my kids for 5+ years in a 6 figure job and I bet everyone bitching would do it too. Y'all some real pious folks when nobody is throwing cash at you.

Why not? I'd rather have him on my staff than in the ear of his kids from the sidelines.

I am not a fan of hiring an assistant to get players. Especially, a father - son relationship.

Plus you're paying him over the table so there is less of a chance to get caught cheating.

This will not end well, IMO. Is there anything in sports crazier then college recruiting?

Problem with that is he would automatically usurp Josh's authority as coach. Terrible precedent.

How? Is Josh that weak? He still would have to prove his worth.
