Unless you’re a blue blood. Then you can do anything you want. The big boys have been on this Memphis resurgence from the beginning. They don’t like being outrecruited.

You simply cannot recruit the parents, pay for their moving expenses to your city several years in advance and find them a job in return for a commitment. What else happened here that is not yet public?? This situation matches perfectly several situations that landed us with the death penalty.

Not defending the NCAA, but if this turns out to be a nothing burger ( pun intended) a lot of rules need changing,

SMU should file an amicus brief in support of Memphis. Enough is enough.

If there is one that drives me crazy is our reluctance to fight back against this corrupt organization. We always seems to just be saying " thank you sir may I have another".
