Penny gags an 11pt 2nd half lead at home

Cal coached in the NBA

Yes he did but not for long, playing and being a star would bring more admiration to a young guy playing basketball. I know it was the wrong move and you know it was a wrong move, I just have a pretty good idea of how he reached the decision he did. I like Penny and I also understand that the timing was perfect for him to jump into college coaching, In Memphis with stars DJ Jeffries and James Wiseman in town playing HS ball, he had to jump when he did, I just wish Cal had hired him to help coach at UK. I also like Tony Barbee and Joel Justis but just dont think they bring much to the table.

“Stay home be a hero and maybe we can make it back to the big dance.” Raises the question of who does Wiseman get to be a hero for, the coach or the fans?

My suspicion is guys like Wiseman and Stewart just want to go somewhere they can average 20+ points, not have to play hard on defense, and head on their merry way after 6 months of CBB.

Everyone of these top recruits know they won’t have it that easy playing for Cal.

d those same players may wonder done the road if they had came here if they would’ve gotten that second contract in some cases and if they would’ve gotten max second contract

How can Wiseman watch Memphis play, then watch UK and not know that he made the wrong decision? How can you possibly compare the two programs and think the right place to go is Memphis?

My gue$$ is that he $ee$ the game like thi$.

And why not? Mick Cronin probably walked out of there with his head hanging low. After all, Penny is tall and played in the NBA but Cronin is short and never played in the NBA. Cronin is probably also jealous that Penny has such extensive experience as an assistant to a real high school coach.

Ok, enough jokes. I really liked Penny as a player. He always seemed a nice guy, and he was am excellent player in his prime. Why does he have to be a jerk and so foolish? Is he that insecure that he feels he needs to draw attention to himself even with negative stories? Why not just turn on the charm instead? I've always been told, you can catch more flies with honey than you can with vinegar.

You can catch more with $hit! What is your point lol.

Wiseman's decision will always be IMO the dumbest decision in Cal's tenure at UK so far at least. Nothing wrong with choosing KU or DUke ect. But freaking sorryass Memphis who has a HS freaking coach ? LMAO .

Along with Mo Bamba , Maliak Newman, the Zimmerman kid , and Blackman. All made STUPID decisions.

Penny isn't worth a dime.

More like Lil'' Penny if you ask me

He's a penny lover....

Penny lover, my love's on fire
Penny lover, you're my one desire

Looking at the rest of his schedule, he will do good to be 2 games over .500. He better win his home games.

Are we going to have a thread every time Memphis loses? I mean, holy hell, he takes a recruit and we need to talk about the guy endlessly.

We're just jealous. Hope that doesn't make you jealous too.

I just think it’s absurd how this board latches onto people.

National writers make a story about Penny taking Wiseman and the other recruit. The board jumps on every chance to negatively talk about Penny.

Lonzo’s dad won’t keep his mouth shut—we need a thread every time Lonzo and Fox play. Or when Lonzo misses a Kings game.

Royce White says he’s the best player in the country. We still hate him while he’s in the NBA.

Take a shot at one of us...

Get dealt with from the rest of us.

Always remember, this is a discussion board first and utmost and that will help you.
