All freshman? Talent yes, team no.

I think Jonathan Lawson is really going to be a good player. I’m not saying we need the drama, but I think he’s going to do well somewhere.

He knows Penny system. He's the head of the press and would get plenty of offensive rebounds. Happy to be home from living away.

Serious question, is this good or bad?

I'm sorry. I was thinking of them as sophomores. As freshmen they would be bullied.

Lawsons are all considered good a basketball, but I don't think any of them really will move the needle for a program. They may be able to contribute more on the defensive side of the ball more than anything due to their length, but never been impressed on their quickness and offensive abilities. I think we can find more game changers than the Lawsons.

Serious questions. Did you watch any of the games? Did you not notice any difference between how the team played before and after the offense was changed?

Not because he is a bad kid...But he is just not productive.

I hope not, or at least he doesn’t come here. Nothing against Tyler at all, but we just don’t need another small guard on the team.

I agree. I love Tyler but we can't have two small guard

The opportunity for Tyler Harris to be a starter, or a useful player, for a high level D-1 team is long gone. He should have been developed as a PG from day 1.

He is way too small to do anything else.

His only role now is to go to a low-major school (Jackson St, MS Valley St, etc.) and be their Michael Jordan. At a school like that he could put up 20 shots per game.

We have room for Tyler Harris

Like any team can be tough to play too small but with anything comparable to Boogie in size to replace him, and I have no idea about the incoming freshman, we can use a shooter

He was extremely erratic for my liking.
The Tyler Harris experiment was done and that chapter is over.
He moved on and so did we.
No need for a sequel.

Sounds like the Tyler transfer might have been at least partly due to Boogie then. Tyler now wanting to come home. Penny likely telling him it will be a reserve roll. If he's willing to accept the instant offense 6th-7th man roll, I'm fine with it.

Doubt it's for Memphis, but who knows these days.

Surely Penny wouldn't.

If they come they would be role players at best. Not starters.

If Penny can find quality transfers, I hope he passes. I have absolutely no issues with Tyler, but 2 small guards just didn’t work at all defensively. He’s a decent shooter but so are plenty of bigger players. He’s capable of a big game but more likely to have poor efforts.

No we don't. If we want to do something like actually make the freaking NCAA Tournament for a change... we don't have room for a 5-7 shooting guard who shoots a low percentage. It's a wasted scholarship unless we are striving for the NIT again.

We don’t need a bench player from Oregon.. That family is toxic anyway.
