kg translation: "Heh, OhioSt bought it!!"
And, for anybody preparing to be 'that guy', I think we all get that it's possible this ends up with them backing into a better guy.
That's not the point. The point is, right now, chaos is ensuing in their fanbase and their tears are delicious.
Reports are that the offer was for $3.2M/year. That's what he was making years ago at Ohio State. So it could be he asked for a ballpark number before agreeing to go down there, and they gave him and assurance...but the final number they put on paper wasn't worth it. That to me is a shockingly low number - why would a coach with a history of health issues go back to coaching for less money? If he can prove his health is better and if he's ready to get after it, I would think he could demand closer to $3.7M+.
Memphis has severe delusions of grandeur concerning their men's basketball programMemphis just fired Tubby Smith. What a time to be alive! Holy cow Memphis owes him $10 Million. They won't get off as easy as they did with Josh Pastner.
Hey maybe georgia can hire him back! LOL.
Maybe the mutts can convince him to come back to the cesspool. LOLMemphis just fired Tubby Smith. What a time to be alive! Holy cow Memphis owes him $10 Million. They won't get off as easy as they did with Josh Pastner.

AMEN!You got to love what Matta said in his Tweet: "I just don’t feel that I am completely ready at this point to give Greg McGarity and Georgia what they deserve." Hell, I think he gave them exactly what they deserve.

Penny will recruit really well to Memphis.
How well his staff will coach is yet to be seen.
Penny has 3 Top 40 2019 players on his AAU squad as well as some other Div 1 caliber players
Yup. Coaching matters. Just ask teams like Kentucky and UNCheat - 20 losses between them despite having talent that 99% of teams could only dream of.
Ehhhhhhhh.......
I do agree coaching matters.
I dont agree with the examples cited.
I do not buy the "Roy Williams is a bad coach" rhetoric. You don't win 3 national titles by being a bad coach. Of UNC's 10 losses, 9 were against tournament teams.
Examples I would cite this year would be Louisville, Wake Forest, UConn, Saint Louis, Alabama where coaching has been a let down.
Well, UNCheat had 5 players rated 5* on their team last year. This year they have "only" 2 (plus of course numerous other Top 100 players), and 10 losses.
Kentucky has ELEVEN Top 100 players on their roster this year, with NINE 5*s. No that is not a typo, they have 9 5-star players this year, and 10 losses.
LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL.
If you had 9 guys who were 5*s on your team and you were the coach, and you did literally nothing, how many games do you think you might lose?
