What is good about this is Penny and his staff are in the hunt for some great talent. We haven’t been in this situation since Calipari.

It would be a pipe dream for every school in our league except for us to land Hurt.

Penny is good with wordsmithing things to be positive...

He likely gave you the same treatment he gave everyone else when he knew all of those stars were not coming to Madness but didn't say anything.

It is good marketing

So you're saying: Penny knows we're not getting him but allowing people to believe we are out of some marketing scheme.....??? oh ok

That's crazy.

Eric may use it in a condescending way but sign me up as a Penny "fan boy." I'm all over it. The positivity surrounding the program isn't something to mock. Embrace it. I'm loving it. We are involved in BIG name recruits. Anyone from a national recruiting site can ignore it, but I won't. I LOVE IT! GTG

Penny is going to sell it in a positive way regardless what his true feelings are
