Was there any even remote foundation for the accusation that Buzz would keep a coaching job as a bargaining chip for a 4-star recruit's basketball coach to encourage him to look at high major who has playing time open at the PF/C position?  

Or is it just that the people in Memphis could not understand how someone would consider going to another school so there had to be a conspiracy theory?

Great class by Memphis though.  At least Louisville didn't get these kids I guess...

Why, did FedEx finally buy Memphis a real conference?  I didn't see that news.

I read the Memphis board a bit this weekend.  It's cute how you guys egg each other on to post some trash talking on other teams threads.  Now run on back to your boyfriend and tell him the job is done.

People from Memphis can read?

Speaking of reading, perhaps you guys should work on your comprehension skills. Wes wanted an assistant job on the TIGERS bench... via Black.... Wes would allow Black to go to any other school w/o such demands. I know, I know... it's still too complicated for ya.   ;D

Anywho, Let's Play Ball!

BTW, the NCAA has imposed a rule were former high coaches cant use their players as a bargaining tool to land collegiate jobs. That sucks for you guys.   ;)

What is complicated is trying to read your incoherent posts.  All I can get out of this is some guy named Wes is/was stoned.

Hopefully we will get a chance to play Memphis at some point.  The great thing about playing Memphis is if you do in fact lose the game you just have to wait until the infractions committee overturns the win at a later date.  You win either way!

Memphis could hold there own in the BEAST. Be interesting to see how they would have turned out had they came with us, depaul, and louisville.

If they didn't have a dirty program we could have found out.

I just hate the retrospective penalties.  They are useless, as all of the benefits associated with exposure and indirect financial benefit have already hit. 

I would much prefer to see corrupt programs (ie. everywhere Jon Cal has coached) punished prospectively with huge sanctions on the coach himself, prohibiting him from leaving a former school in shambles while he proceeds to rosier pastures.  For the multiple infractions, a school like Memphis should get 2 years no post-season, and 1 year without ANY national TV exposure, including highlights.  That sends a much stronger message than stripping away wins that already occurred.

With all that said, good luck Tarik, by all written accounts you seem like a good guy.

I agree for the most part.  However, I believe in Memphis' case they had to forfeit nearly $700,000 to the NCAA (so at least they lost some of the financial benefits).  I think they are appealing the money aspect.

What really leaves a bad taste in my mouth is that they don't just suspend the COACH and AD from ANY NCAA event, and fine the pants off of them.

hit em where it hurts, their wallets and their egos.

I'd agree, and I think schools that hire coaches that have been found guilty of issues in the past should be warned that if issues persist they will be hit with greater sanctions.  If you hire a cheat and then allow him to cheat...you should be done.

  (Henning is the last name) - he is the coach at Ridgeway high school where Tarik goes.
Thanks for ruining summer, Canada.

I find it hysterical that someone from Memphis would ever throw stones at ANY school in the country. A school that went 15 years wuithout having one of its basketball players get a degree? A school that purchased a brand new Cadillac for Dejuan Wagner, then hired Wagner's father as assistant coach to make Dejuan would attend the school? A school that has been dirty for three decades now? We can take hits from UW, Louisville, even Kentucky. But Memphis? God.

Awesome video (although there doesn't seem to be much going on with the left hand) - would be what we were always looking for at the Ardmore - a sweet pick-up.

best of luck to Tarik. I guess getting an education wasn't part of his agenda.

I wish him the best but I also don't want to read about him anymore ... just like Taylor, Nick Williams, or Crean for that matter.  He no longer matters to Marquette until we play them.  I want to read about our future even if merely speculation.
