That explains a lot.

You counted the number of words. How pathetic are you?

Salukie, keep doing what you do. Berating ex-coaches on twitter, when he was right and you were wrong.

Anything for that attention that you crave, right?

Well, the slick slow like you seem to keep giving it to me.

Slick show? Makes about as much sense as anything else you have said today.

Now go tweet at Jonah Jordan fifty times. Maybe he'll respond to you once. Oh boy!!!

Seems someone is paying a lot of attention to me on twitter, too.

He just needs to focus on his achievements. I actually like what he did here. Not always the results but he worked his butt off. He was the only one that worked his butt off. He should be able to land a job based on his accolades without anything else. He'll be fine.

Good luck to the guy and I wish him the best.

His wording is horrible IF that were his intention. Have to look at the history here.

1. Memphis fans/media consistently downed the recruiting.
2. Biggest knock was lack of top 150 recruits.
3. Since Coach Penny was hired and landed the current recruiting class especially the last couple of days everyone has been talking about how he landed 3 top 150 recruits and had a top 30 class in 3 1/2 weeks and several media guys consistently mention the other staff couldn't do that.

I get he was defending his accomplishment, but the wording and cherry picked stat and "everyone talks about" reference states otherwise in my opinion and apparently in the opinion is quite a few people here.

Both posts--well said.

Huge Penny fan but when we start bragging about TOP 150 recruits, it makes me wonder about these posters and what their expectations and thought process is (but not Penny-he will have top 25-50 signed next class).

As a general rule in basketball, top 150 recruits without a couple of top 50 recruits won’t get you very far. I know it’s his first year, but we don’t celebrate Top 150 recruits at Memphis. That being said, I think Lomax and to a lesser extent, Harris are vastly underrated by recruiting services.

I agree that a collection of 100-150's generally won't lead to Elite 8's but they are great pieces to have when a couple top 50s are added.

I think the contention as to the OP was merely that Big Joe was playing fast and loose to try to get some props for himself.

RE: Joe Esposito on Twitter
I had to fast forward through this thread. Seemed to get a bit repetitive, didn't it? Someone let me know who won.

As for Joe, a couple of thoughts. First, why are any Tigers fans still following him to begin with? Especially if you don't like him - and most of the Tigers replying seem to be in this category. I dropped the guy about a month ago. I just looked at his profile, and yeah he needs to remove all the Memphis references.

Second, I think he's a good guy at heart and a hard worker. Yeah, he does some things that I cringed over. But if you met him, it's his personality and how he's gone about making his mark. I thought the congrats to Tyler earlier this week was sincere. I think most of his congrats are both to compliment and to help his career. I thought this tweet was along those lines, but he did seem to cross-over with the hashtag into an uncharacteristically bitter presentation.

Third, he is looking for a job. That's the main thing. I'm guessing Tubby will ultimately make High Point a family affair with at least 2 of his sons on staff. Joe will be odd man out.

Finally, Tubby's staff had everyone up one spot higher than they needed to be - Joe included. He will be a fine 3rd AC in D1 ball. But note the difference between Joe at #3, and a Mike Miller at #3. That is the difference we're going to see in this entire staff

100% agree. We expect great recruiting classes here. As you pointed out though, this is Coach Penny's first season. Actually 1st month. What I like is the fact he's trying to build the wall around the city. We should be able to get most of the players we want out of the city every season. Generally Memphis is going to have a few high level recruits every season. This year the top 2 players out of the city were Lomax and Harris. We got them both and they will be the back bone of this team for the next 4 years. Antwann Jones was the #2 guard in the 2018 class prior to his injury. I think he will end up being a steal. The rumor is he will be the best player on our team this season easily. Not my words, Gary mentioned it the other day.

This first class was great as a foundation. Next years class will hopefully push us over the top.

You still have not defended your Humble Brag comment since it is just as bad as the 'everyone talks about' statement.

What are you talking about? Make some sense.

"Defend" the humble brag comment? What the f does that mean. I don't need to "defend" anything. That implies I have crossed the line or something like that?

Your tweet says you don't know which one is worse the incorrect stats or the fact that he is bragging...Clearly two slams in that post you are only defending one.

You consistently say you are not bashing the guy, but only stating that he skewed the stats. But you post indicates that him bragging was just as bad.

Seems strange I have to explain your own post to you.

Man, you're really spending a lot of time dwelling on a tweet of mine that I spent about 20 seconds composing.

The tweet was a humblebrag that wasn't even correct.

It's bad when you try to back door brag and you can't even do that right.

Par for the course.

At least he didn't tweet about our RPI going from 160 to 150.

Didn't know this thread had been moved to Smack. Great point '87, why is Saluki still stalking and taking shots at Coach Joe on twitter? I, like you, unfollowed Coach Joe a while back.

So get this. Just went to Coach Joe's twitter like '87 did, and look what I found. In response to Saluki's blathering to Coach Joe, Brooks freaking Hansen from 24/7 corrected Saluki. Only part of Brooks' tweet, he also cut-and-pasted a picture of the 24/7 rankings that had Myreon Jones #81, and circled in red the #81:

Brooks Hansen @brookshansen247 6h6 hours ago

. . . However, I believe he was referring to Jones’ 247Sports Top247 (Independent) ranking.


To which Saluki responded "Fair enough . . ." and then goes into his stupid, monotonous crap about him not liking the phrase 'everyone talks about', as if that makes any effing difference.

This was around 9:15 this morning. And yet Saluki continued to argue with us for hours on this board, after Brooks had told Saluki that he was looking at the wrong ranking.

Saluki, your ego is like the Rocky Mountains. Not to be understood, just to be viewed in awe.

As a general rule in basketball, top 150 recruits without a couple of top 50 recruits won’t get you very far.

Not true. At least not this year. Of the Elite 8 teams, only three of them had 2 or more top 50 guys in their starting lineups. Bluebloods Duke, Kansas, and semi-blue Villanova.

Of the other five Elite 8 teams, there was only 1 other top 50 starter - Florida State's M.J. Walker.

Other interesting facts...There were as many unranked starters (outside the top 500) as there were top 25 starters (7 of each). And there were more starters outside the top 100 (23) than there were top 100 guys (17).

Top 50 talent certainly makes it easier. But it's not the only way for deep NCAA runs. You can certainly do it with the right 50-150 ranked guys.

And before you start - this has nothing to do with Tubby. Man had to go for numerous reasons. Soooo thankful for money guys/Admin making the move, and for Penny & the energy he's created.

I knew Salooki had haters. But I didn't know Joe had _______.

A. Defenders
B. Admirers
C. Followers
D. Other

And it's not even #mancrushmonday

Well, except for Tigx. I'm his #mancrush here and on the twitter.

Nope Saluki, I don't follow you on twitter, get enough of your stupidity here.

Continue to be flattered that you want to be my mancrush, but sorry Saluki, I don't swing that way. Fine that you do, nothing wrong with that, just not for me.

As for Joe, a couple of thoughts. First, why are any Tigers fans still following him to begin with? Especially if you don't like him - and most of the Tigers replying seem to be in this category. I dropped the guy about a month ago. I just looked at his profile, and yeah he needs to remove all the Memphis references.

Didn't know this thread had been moved to Smack. Great point '87, why is Saluki still stalking and taking shots at Coach Joe on twitter? I, like you, unfollowed Coach Joe a while back.

So get this. Just went to Coach Joe's twitter like '87 did, and look what I found. In response to Saluki's blathering to Coach Joe, Brooks freaking Hansen from 24/7 corrected Saluki. Only part of Brooks' tweet, he also cut-and-pasted a picture of the 24/7 rankings that had Myreon Jones #81, and circled in red the #81:

Brooks Hansen @brookshansen247 6h6 hours ago

. . . However, I believe he was referring to Jones’ 247Sports Top247 (Independent) ranking.


To which Saluki responded "Fair enough . . ." and then goes into his stupid, monotonous crap about him not liking the phrase 'everyone talks about', as if that makes any effing difference.

This was around 9:15 this morning. And yet Saluki continued to argue with us for hours on this board, after Brooks had told Saluki that he was looking at the wrong ranking.

Saluki, your ego is like the Rocky Mountains. Not to be understood, just to be viewed in awe.

Imadepper?

Sup' mancrush. Thanks for further attention.

In the vein of completeness, here is the exchange between us.


Imawhat? What are your talking about?

So what's your point? Was anything I said incorrect?

Brooks pointed out your error 6+ hours ago, and you continued to argue here knowing your mistake. Knowing the whole time Myreon Jones was #81 on the board that Coach Joe referenced. In the vein of completeness, why don't you also post the picture of the rankings that Brooks made just for you. The one where he circled Myreon Jones #81 in red.

Ego much?

And Who knew saloogi had. So many haters?

And took credit for Tyler Harris in a previous tweet.

Joe is the one that needs to shut up and move on and take his defenders, admirers, followers, and others with him.

He can **** all the way off like the moose ****er.
