Dude Lomax is good. lol. you talking crazy. Boogie got beat out.
Please. Lomax is Andre Allen. A 8-12 minute player. Boogie was the only guard that could beat his man off the dribble and finish at the basket. Other teams also had to play his 3pt ability. Lomax can’t do any of that and defenses played him accordingly.
THIS Lomax getting hurt gave these players a REAL chance at playing at their peak potential....This is a rebellion to Penny forcing them to play with Alo....IMHO

Yep. But senior ALo and junior Lester should be a nice backcourt.

RE: Boogie Ellis enters the transfer portal
I guess I don’t blame him, Baugh or DJ. Anytime Jayden or ALo take minutes away from them I’d be gone too.
ALo better take shooting lessons from Nolley this summer assuming he doesn’t leave either.

Lomax didn't transfer here. He signed with WSU was let out of his commitment & signed with Memphis. He never enrolled at WSU which would be a requirement to transfer.

No, not a direct shot at all. It's the world of college sports in 2021.
He struggled last year and considered transferring. Penny got him to stay. This year, he had more struggles.
He's a west coast guy and I'm guessing he ends up back out there. Maybe comfortable surroundings will help his mental and consistency issues.
But you don’t think in anyway this is telling Penny that his program is not good enough to get me to where I want to be? If he believed Penny was the best person to prepare him for the league, why does he go?
No, not at all.
Look around college basketball.
Dook already has 3 guys in the portal. Is that an indictment of Coach K?
The transfer portal is the reason why Houston suddenly became legit.

I'd be happy if Penny can find a Jerreau and a Gorham in the transfer portal.

RE: Boogie Ellis enters the transfer portal
I expected Baugh to transfer and open a spot for a better and quicker thinking player from the portal. I also expect another player might choose the portal after Penny talks with them. But Boogie had the most improvement this season especially in the last third of the season. I hate to see him go because i believe he will continue to improve next season.
Is Williams going to play another season? If he does our starting five will be fine, but we need the portal to pan out for a possible starter and an effective bench if we are to win the conference title next year.

You know exactly what I meant
He SIGNED with Wichita State then decided to come back home to Memphis
And Memphis (really Memphian) haters like you seize on this ****
Done, you never progressed in order to regress. Bye

RE: Boogie Ellis enters the transfer portal
My wife met the team after the NIT championship game. She said all of them were very friendly and happy.....except for Boogie. He played really well in those games and maybe he did not get the recognition he thought he deserved....not sure...but he was not a happy camper at a time when he should have been.
