Well done!

Gotta love how much the announcers are talking up Penny .... While playing in the NIT with one of the national top recruiting classes ..... Again.

I'll assume I'm wrong on that point then. I need to double-check the AAC rules of grad transfers. Yerba would certainly be a nice addition if it is indeed possible.

I couldn't find an online copy of the current AAC policy manual, but unless there has been a change since 18-19, it appears that grad transfers are also subject to the intra-conference 1 year lost eligibility rule. The exception to that is an athlete who starts at an AAC school, transfers to an non-AAC school and then becomes a grad transfer, but obviously that is not the case with Yetna.

Normally Parish has been pretty pro-WSU .. but I guess the memphis fandom is blinding him. Memphis media in general is horrible. They have no problem going on slander campaigns with half facts anytime Memphis is slighted.

I quit listening to him years ago, but I do agree that he's off the charts with his Memphis fandom. I haven't remembered him being particularly pro-WSU.

Remember that Penny is Memphis born and raised (and is pretty much a no contest GOAT from there), just like ******* (except the GOAT part) - so you're basically asking a glorified Bob Lutz to be objective about a Shocks team coached by Antoine, Darnell, and Ricky Ross.

That and him hitting a kid, choking an assistant,t and generally being boorish. (See his discussion about Nurger's girlfriend.)

Nowhere near as boorish and stupid as this your post.

What? Nurger's girlfriend? What did I miss? Thought I'd seen/heard EVERYTHING....

Is there a trend here? Are we witnessing the political climate starting to parallel the college basketball world. After Brannen and Hunter get fired...there will only be two - Jankovich and Dooley. Are they next???

Please don't misunderstand...if there were truly some bs racial stuff going on...I get it. There's no place for that. Ever!!! But if this is a coup on the suburban white guy (coaches)...uggghhh...what a mess.

Not judging...just wondering...

Which is why this topic really needs its own stage....

Since you can't refute the behavior, do you just post a gif?

It use to be that to get the grad transfer exemption a grad transfer had to enroll in a grad program not offered by his school. Am I dreaming that and, if not, has that gone by the wayside?

Not that the educational considerations are the driving force behind these moves. Most likely future economic opportunities is the main thing.

Yetna, who is from Paris, would no doubt be able to make some coin playing professional overseas. But he may have his eyes on the NBA.

Everything I've seen has Yetna as a RsJR and a grad transfer.

A. I think it does apply to grad transfers and only didn't apply to AG because UConn was leaving the conference and B. Yetna is a redshirt sophomore so I don't see how that would apply in this case anyhow.

I didn't think this rule applied to grad transfers (i.e. Alterique Gilbert). Not that I think we are likely to get Yetna as he will have a big line of suitors, but making a phone call certainly couldn't hurt.

Nope. Don't expect he will either. Gregg hurt his feelings because he didn't suck up to him. That was his sole motivation.
