    Yep. They were going to make up part of a very solid core Top 7 or so in the league that was going to be a ton of T1 and T2 games. Hope the young man can recover fully.

    • Man!! That's a tough bow for USF. Alexis could really play some ball. Wishing him good luck on his recovery.

            "Only Penny could revitalize his hometown Tigers.

            ...Hardaway’s first recruit didn’t need any convincing. After playing under Hardaway’s tutelage at Lester and Memphis East, Alex Lomax had grown into a four-star prospect with offers that included Florida, LSU, and Cal. He signed a letter of intent with Wichita State with hopes of becoming the next Fred VanVleet. Things changed when Memphis hired Hardaway. Just weeks after Hardaway’s introductory press conference, Lomax ditched the Shockers and accepted a scholarship from Memphis.

            “When I committed and signed with Wichita, no one knew Penny was going to get the Memphis job,” Lomax said. “I called Coach (Gregg) Marshall and told him I wanted my release. I’m still thankful for Coach Marshall for giving me the opportunity....”

                • Temple forward Jake Forrester received a waiver for immediate eligibility today. Sophomore that played his freshman season at Indiana but didn't see the court much. Not sure where he fits into the Owls rotation but was a good recruit coming out of high school.

                        I agree. They looked pretty solid when I watched them against Maryland.

                              .....but, statistically speaking, you miss 99% of the shots you do take.
