I think you're right. Hardaway isn't my first, second, third or tenth choice. BUT if he's the coach then I'll support him and hope for his success.

It does seem like this will either work and work big, like getting deep into the NCAA big, or it will be a huge cluster****.

I played a lot of ball with Penny back in the day. Went to the same high school and played varsity ball with Leon Mitchell. Many, many games with Penny, Leon, Nick, Vaughn. I spent a lot of time working out at the same gym as Penny, when he wasn't at the courts on campus. I wasn't good enough to make it on the Tigers team but played in many games with the guys before they did their afternoon practices or played their nightly games. The best way I can sum up Penny...Anfernee is not a bright man. He dumb. Not even smart enough to get a 400 on the SAT.

I find it extremely difficult to believe this same guy, the guy that had troubles tying the shoelaces on his kicks, would make a good division I NCAA basketball coach. Penny was a great player. Would make a great recruiter, great conditioning coach, great PR guy, but head coach? puhleeze. Don't believe what i'm saying is true? Just ask a certain member and coach, now banned on this forum, what he thinks of Penny's mental aptitude. Penny's mental talents aren't exactly a well kept secret around town.

Penny Hardaway was a Prop 48 casualty. He had to get a presidential exemption to get into the University and had to sit out his freshman year.


hes obviously smarter than you

No, he's more athletic than me. I can spell my own name. Unlike you.

something else you know zero about. he wasn't fired from smu. he resigned when they wouldn't extend his contract

Do you deny the NCAA violations?

btiger didn't commit any NCAA violations.

He's won several National Coach of the Year honors. He was one of five coaches to win more than 365 games in 15 seasons or fewer. He has taken five different schools to the NCAA tournament. He won the National Championship. He is a lock for the Hall of Fame.

You do not have to be enlightened to know we have not sniffed post season play in Tubby's two years here and do not have recruits coming in that bring hope of being better...

Could Tubby be a "mistake" and Penny be a bigger "mistake"?

I guess that's my feeling on the deal. But, I'm not a rich guy, so my opinion and $1.51 will get you a cup of coffee. 04-cheers
