Appears whole staff leaving. Rick Stansbury leaving? Did know he was there. Lots to be bad if Rick wants out.

Their pictures all look like mugshots, and the dude in the middle is trying to be Malcolm X. Hey guys… it’s ok to smile!
Practice starts next month….not a good sign at all
They finally realized that Memphis, other than Beale St., is a sh*thole town to live in.
Sometimes I think Penny and Deion Sanders are in a competition to see who can f**k up worse as a coach.
My daughter lived in Memphis for 2 years and I aged like a President or UK coach during that time.
Penny is in over his head, even at a basketball wasteland like Memphis...... Remember when he said that other coaches were jealous of him?..... What a clownWhoa. Nothing says stable environment than moves like this.

I bet, no way I’d let my kids live there. I couldn’t stop them, but I’d really try to convince them to go somewhere else.
Thank the Lord they moved to Athens Alabama where it is much safer and they like it a lot better.
I guess the reason cal did ok there is because he fit right in at that place
Well he did have to vacate wins and the second final four in his career. So maybe there was a reason he did okay.
That’s a real bad look with practices and everything getting underway. I’m guessing either Penny is a complete a-hole to work with, or they know something we don’t and are jumping ship. Either way, this seems like the end for the Penny/Memphis experiment.
I like Memphis as much as I like UL and that is very little. Hope they both have a lot of problems this year.
I smell a rat… definitely a lot more to this story. It’ll be interesting to find out what’s going on.
Penny being Penny. He is placing blame and letting the assistants be the fall guys for not making the tournament last year. Penny knows he is on the hot seat and will place blame at the feet of others to save his own ass. Sad part is, Stansbury was the coach who signed MOST of the top recruits Memphis landed this year (including his son Noah). Stansbury is a hell of a recruiter, Penny just couldn't coach them. He was only with Memphis for last year and was responsible for signing most of this years roaster. I would say at minimum, his son leaves, probably more players will follow.
I think it's simple...
These guys went to coach there b/c with the history of the program, etc, they thought the program & head coach were worth a dime, but in the end, it was really only a Penny.

I learned everything I ever need to know about Memphis by watching The First 48. Pass.
They finally realized that Penny couldn't coach his way out of a wet paper bag.
I actually used to like Memphis back to the old Metro conference days, where they were a thorn in UL's side
Memphis would have been much better off if they fired Penny and made Stansbury Head Coach. I don’t necessarily like him but he’s a good recruiter and pretty good coach also. Penny is garbage, IMO.
I beg to differ. I have been here 16 years now and I don't believe you could pry me away. While it gets a bad rap, it is just like any other big city. Just know where NOT to go and you will be fine. Memphis has a lot of good to offer.
I hate kicking anyone when they are down! but.... We could all see this happening after the behavior traits Penny has shown since he started coaching. Just because you played the game doesn't necessarily mean you can coach the game! I think he is a perfect example of this IMO.
Completely bizarre. I’ve heard of head coaches cleaning house like this in early spring right after an awful season, but NEVER in September right before a new season is about to begin.
If he didn’t like his staff, why would he wait this long to fire them? Something really ugly must’ve gone down behind the scenes.

Some folks seem to believe that any town over like 50,000 is hell on Earth and anything over a a quarter million metro is the Devils anus on fire.
Too bad about staff break up. Cant think of 2 worse coaches on bench than Penny and Stansbury.
I did not know he left WKU and had to research it.
He resigned from WKU on 3/11/23. Stansbury added, "This past season has been a challenging one, and I need some time to step away from things and focus on my health and my family. This is a very difficult decision but the right one."
He was hired at Memphis on 4/28/23.
No but there are many other places that are so much better where you can be just about anywhere at anytime without much worry. Why live in a pace where you have to have you head on a swivel 24/7 especially if you go down one wrong street?
This is a bit confusing to me. What exactly
do you mean the history of the program? Other than a few years under Cowl that school has repeatedly sucked year after year.
