Did Wiseman graduate from H.S.with a diploma or (Fake). Memphis
let him play? If so, Penny is a joke. Games should be forfeited for cheating. Memphis on probation or Penny released. Wonder what kind of
grade pt. he has in college. Course--How to hold a golf club or walk
straight etc.

Why would you ask whether he graduated from high school or question his GPA?

Not to mention his college GPA when he hasn't even completed a semester.

Just. Win. Baby.

Everyone. Cheats.

If. You. Ain't. Cheating. You. Ain't. Trying.

Not if they are put on probation, the negative PR, etc...they have already suffered further brand harm, but it was not exactly great to begin with which is why they may be willing to roll the dice.

The school and athletic department has had a shady reputation for 40 years...this isn't helping.

Brand harm? This is Memphis' brand, and I see little harm.
The only thing that will harm the Memphis brand is being irrelevant, as they were under Tubby and Pastner.

[Billy Hoyle]

he showed enough in the.first few games to be a top 3 draft pick. Season over.

his numbers against a couple of garbage teams are impressive but 14 and 12 against Oregon is misleading. Most of those came in the final few minutes of the game, he was a non-factor for most of it.  Against other guys his size he struggled.

[Earl Tatum]

How do you get into college if you don't graduate from h.s.? Cheat !

He hardly played at all in the first half due to foul trouble.

What makes you believe Wiseman might not have graduated high school?

[Billy Hoyle]

and didn't really do anything until late in the second half when Oregon was ahead.

Or when they are relevant, almost every time in their history, it has been with scandal...so yes, it matters to many alumni that share a connection with the school.  To other alumni, they don't care.  Let's not pretend it is fully supportive.

There are 100's of relevant schools that don't excel in athletics.  Just as there are a bunch that have a shitty perception because of their cheating in athletics that has overshadowed some of their academic achievements.

What did Kwami Brown and Eddy Curry accomplish in college?

The NBA drafts on potential. This guy will be rich very soon.

His ineligibility in high school was not related to grades. It was related to shady dealings surrounding their transfer and illegal payments from Penny to the player/players.

They were declared ineligible. They got the same judge to file an injunction and temporary restraining order. They played anyway (just like at Memphis). The judge then found that they were indeed ineligible and the wins when they illegally played are now in jeopardy of being nullified.

Essentially they played the same legal game they tried to do at Memphis.

He'll be rich, I don't doubt that, but I went expecting to see a lot more from him than I did. Achuwa was the best player for Memphis.

Huh? Achiuwa went for 5, 4, and 1. Wiseman had 14, 12, and 0 on 5-8 shooting. The only thing that slowed him was foul trouble.

Let us know when you land an NBA GM job.
