Not a glowing endorsement of this staph on his way out, and mirrors a lot of the complaints on here.
Between this and the way the Cross and Lykes situations are handled, good grief.
Extremely overrated but I think Memphis is a good landing spot
Out of all the teams who made the final four he’d look least out of place on Houston so it makes sense. Same conference too. A lot of athleticism and grit on that team. Not much shot making and offense
Memphis is a high major program, playing in a mid major conference. Sort of like Gonzaga. I'm afraid Miami on the other hand is the opposite. It's ran more like a mid major program, playing in a high major conference.
At this point, we're ran more like a low major program than a mid major.Memphis is a high major program, playing in a mid major conference. Sort of like Gonzaga. I'm afraid Miami on the other hand is the opposite. It's ran more like a mid major program, playing in a high major conference.
You wouldn't be saying that if he ended up at Gonzaga, Houston, or one of the Big East schools. Many of these mid-major and GO5 schools are running programs as competent and well-funded as Power 5 schools, and in most cases, far exceeding what Miami is doing.
That's the great thing about basketball. Get the right coach and a few really good players and you're back in the picture! Unlike football where you need 40 contributing.
There are plenty of other players picking mid majors over this dumpster fire.
That's why I said 5 years. Not like we couldn't turn it around sooner, but if L is likely going to be here until his contract runs out that's 3 years, plus another 2 years for the new coach to get acclimated and put his system in place.
