The NCAA has ruled Memphis F/C James Wiseman -- the possible No. 1 overall pick in 2020 NBA Draft -- ineligible, his lawyers said in Memphis.

Grand opening. Grand closing.

Also, we all saw this coming. Memphis basketball gets good then the NCAA gets to Memphis basketball. That is the order of things.

It's pretty bad to be thought of as the dirtiest guy in the profession made of slime.

Happened 11 years ago and they decide to ban him one game in Kids just need to play overseas until high school to NBA is legal again

Memphis honestly reminded me of Ole Miss in their little resurgence a few years ago. It was so obvious.

From the most recent article, Penny helped him move to Memphis. At least according to Wiseman's lawyer, Leslie Ballin.

Edit: well, if I was late on the news, at least I can comment that I'm happy his attorney is named Ballin.

This is Al Capone tax evasion level petty. This really is super dumb. We all know he was paid to go to Memphis, and no one cares. Why get him on this bullshite.

Over something that happened in 2008? You have GOT to be kidding me. Surely this will be appealed and more rational heads will prevail.

Why was Penny helping him move in 2008?

It's weird that people believe Penny is really reeling in these recruits because he's "a legend" or some shite. These kids weren't even born yet when he was good.

Banning him for something in 2008 is really dumb, but lets be honest - Memphis didn't get the #1 recruiting class this past cycle by following the rules.
