Little bit of an aside comment but is Cisse and LSU basketball recruiting related.

When I went to the Eli Savoie tweet, I noticed there was a tweet from Mike Miller issuing a statement yesterday that he is leaving Penny's staff at Memphis. When Penny was first hired and put together his staff, Miller was lauded as an outstanding get and hire for Penny. I also read in an article on Cisse the other day that Miller could play a role in his recruitment since it is a consensus that Cisse needs to work on developing a shot and that Miller is considered a great developer in that area of the game.

This could also be big as it seems ever since Penny's arrival, LSU and Memphis have had some pretty big head-to-head recruiting battles. Just thought I'd share.

I definitely think the Miller news hurts Memphis. I think FSU is the one to worry about and don’t think for a second Cal isn’t trying to run with this Dickie V crap.

Memphis has a total dud of a recruiting class, they had to go out and get some transfers, they landed no high school kids and a meh JUCO kid. They really striked out big time in helping to find replacements for Achiuwa, Wiseman and Harris who transferred out (they had another player transfer out as well, and 1 senior who graduated). They really need DJ Jeffries to be an all-star next year for them if they probably are to get in the tournament.

I wonder if Mike Miller was asked to leave in any capacity because the recruiting got so bad, I figured Penny and him would hit big early but the past couple seasons havent been great for them and I think that shine wore off a bit.
