He acknowledged that Nike is excited because he’s the first signature athlete to be a head coach ever! Think about that, Memphis fans has the advantage of someone that no single college basketball program in this country can claim, a coach who has a current brand! Can you imagine the publicity and Sports media chatter when the whole team one day coming up will all be wearing Penny shoes, the coaches own signature shoes? Can you imagine the following that we will get from some casual college basketball fans to none sports-watching people who all are into brands? Add top players and start winning games and Memphis tiger basketball will be a national following. Lil Penny too
Bet on it
Yep x's and o's, running the program, etc. are more common attributes. Coaches who recruit are the hardest to find. Penny's recruiting efforts so far are exciting and the excitement is exaggerated by the juxtaposition with Tubby's recruiting.
I'm trying to keep it in check, but I'm giddy with hope after having almost none for so long.

If Penny wins he'll get paid. 1.5 million is generous for someone with his experience.
