Saw something about Texas Tech being one over on their scholarship limit. Of course that doesn't mean much.

Anyone have a timeline on when a decision might be made

Yep. Penny wants to speed up the game and it looks like McClung has the natural ability best suited to that style.

He would have to sit a year. He told ESPN he will be filing a waiver to play immediately, Not sure what grounds he is filing the waiver on. I don't see the NCAA granting the waiver.

He could pretend he's going to Duke, get the waiver, and then come to Memphis.

He can get the waiver to play likely because of the Georgetown scandal. He would be our best dunker since DJ and perhaps the best handler on the team. Dude can ball and Penny wants him. Even Ja wants him.

RE: Mac McClung
Mad overrated cause of some high school highlights and being a jumping white guy. But he is worth a scholly for sure.

Good to see Penny cleaning up the transfer market. I wouldn't mind experienced transfers being his go to for a few years until he gets his feet on the ground.

That's an uneducated comment at best. You don't break Allen Iverson's scoring records and do between the leg reverse dunks IN GAME by being overrated. If anything, he is underrated. Put him on the right team and watch him thrive.

RE: Mac McClung
If anything I would say he was underrated coming out of high school. While at Georgetown he has averaged 14 points a game while shooting 40% from the field and 80% from the free throw line. That's the average over 2 years.

But the choice is not equal because Nolley may never show.

DJ Stephens: 6'5 with a 46 inch running vertical leap (highest ever recorded by the NBA).

Mac McClung: 6'2 with a 48 inch running vertical leap.

Overrated my ass.

I have done my homework on Mac McClung sir probably well before half the people here heard of him. As for his scoring records, here are the all time leaders in every state to show how meaningless that is.

https://www.maxpreps.com/news/e7SOAWF_7k...states.htm

Load of superstars there huh? Comp at Gate City was wack and he did nothing of note in AAU despite playing on some solid teams with notable prospects. Poor shooter who sometimes has hot streaks. Not much of a pg. Decent creator and good athlete. This is why a well known prospect "who broke Iverson record" is a 3 star ranked below 200.

Not trying to bash but I'm not ass kissing either for no reason. He is OK but gets talked about more than he deserves.

I bet he can hit free throws to win a game. Good enough for me.

He is significantly better than all of our top 50/top 100 guards two years running while playing in a significantly better league... if they reranked that class based on actual results he would almost definitely be top 40-50ish

Yes and I state yet again that I think he is worth getting. Just think he is overhyped beyond what he deserves. He is a solid rotational guard on a good team. Not a program changer or some lead guard (like they were implying on the radio today) that can carry you to deep tourney runs. Atleast not at the moment.

+17.6 when he's in the game for Georgetown. I'm pretty sure he's worth of scholarship LOL

Anyone, at any time, can be a program changer. See Jeremy Lin. I've watched the tapes. I've seen the stats. I've compared those stats to those of the AAC. And the fact is, Mac McMemphis would be a wonderful thing.
