I think this is a very good sign that we will land Watford (was fairly confident before this announcement).

If Memphis gets Hampton (which doesn't look probable) They will have the brand new fab 5 freshman. Not better than dukes class last year though.

Had no idea Mike Miller was his main recruiter and assistant... they should have a solid team for awhile if he can coach half as well as he’s recruiting

Not really...both are very good but Watford has been LSU for a while so it’s not been a decision situation here

I don't think it's a Memphis/LSU battle at this point.

I think it is a LSU/Bama battle for Watford. It sounds like Oates is on him really hard.

I am curious if anybody in National media "cough, cough" is looking into how a nobody program like Memphis is getting all these high power recruits to come in and play for a first time NCAA head coach!!!

Of course they aren't paying at Memphis. It's obvious that Penny and Mike Miller are just super cool and hip with the kids these days.

Penny recruited high school kids to East high school from around the nation. He won high school national championships. He was a giant in the AAU scene. Memphis is a basketball school. Penny has close affiliation with Nike. Cheating or not. He would’ve been able to get players. I live in Memphis and he is one beloved SOB

Memphis has a bigger basketball fan base than LSU by a lot. Bigger crowds.

History is just as if not more impressive for Memphis too.

City of Memphis loves basketball

They have had a lot of wins and post seasons taken away too though

Penny may be putting together a great class, but he won't have all of them for more than 1 year. I think Quinones made a mistake by going Memphis. He won't make the starting 5 this year and next year he will have some 5 star freshmen to compete with. Penny is cleaning house this off-season, but I don't expect this class to be better than Duke or the Fab 5. People underestimate the importance of having players with college experience.
