Memphis starts 2019 recruiting push 

On June 15, college coaches could officially make direct contact over the phone with 2019 recruits. At least eight announced Memphis offers on social media. Notable prospects included Oak Hill guard Josh Nickelberry, the cousin of incoming freshman David Nickelberry; West Point, Miss., point guard Austin Crowley; and forward Vernon Carey, who is considered one of the top recruits in the country out of Fort Lauderdale, Fla.

Among local prospects, East big man Malcolm Dandridge said he spoke with Tigers Coach Tubby Smith, and Memphis also reached out to Jeffries, who plays alongside Dandridge on Nike’s Elite Youth Basketball League with Team Penny.

By Wednesday, the Tigers had made contact with East forward Antavion “Dude” Collum. All three players had received offers from Memphis.

Honestly what's the point of Wiseman going to East if they aren't going to play a fully national schedule? He's already a top 5 prospect, what can East do for him that he's not already accomplishing himself. He could win the championship at Ens when Garland graduates so the championship thing can be accomplished on both ends. Ensworth has a great coach so that's not the problem either. The only benefit in him transferring is practicing against Dandridge daily.

But with Wiseman they can go undefeated and be the National Champs without playing in the Dicks National Tournament

To be the best you have to actually beat the best, i don't think they are into honorary rewards.

Lonzo. All team went undefeated his senior yr and they didn't play in the dicks Tournament and they was national champs, the best teams are not in the Dicks tournament. Just like last yr Michael Porter Jr team went undefeated and was National Champs and they didn't compete in the Dicks Tournament neither. So it's not Honorary

    • Ouch! If he's in the scrap business maybe 
    • That's a nice story but has little to nothing to do with what we're talking about. 
    • The winds of change are blowing in Hartsville.     Will be an interesting follow.    Would go back to the 90s and turn black the clock!
    • Did he promise you a coordinator job or something if he ever got a head coaching job? He resigned? He was at the top of the dugout last night calling plays. I wonder if those 30+ parents would let him give their kids a ride. by the way the board meeting was last night and it was not mentioned. must have been at the work session earlier this week which is not public. must be trying to keep it quiet.  Since you know so much, how much is Robbie Atwood willing to pay Adam Cothron?  Didn't you slander Eden earlier on here? You also didn't know he was a faculty coach again so how much do you really know? Some people outside this county baffle me with their need to slander others.    
    • He resigned smh, and have you ever heard of charged but not convicted. Some people in this county baffle me with their need to slander others. Have you asked any of the 30+ parents that signed a petition to get him reinstated at the board meeting this week how they feel about this? Just let it play out, at the end of the day the only people that will bring TC back are the ones that know what its about at its core.    People hate losing and they aren't used to it at TC. I for 1, and I'm sure others too, understand having a dip in talent and not being able to compete for a state title every year. But in the past, TC teams have outworked more talented teams, they didn't continuously lose the turnover battle, they didn't commit 8+ penalties in several games each season, and I believe several of the folks in town that want Blake out feel as if he is neglecting the history of the program. This is from a source that used to be extremely close to the program (not me lol), Blake gets out of school midday and the players show up and there is no practice plan or itinerary.  I also understand those that are on team Blake, when he has loads of talent, he wins. He does know football and he is a tremendous DC, and if the rumors are true then he will do great things. As for the board member issue, it is what it is, everyone that's true to the county know that and nothing has changed. I agree though that they should strive to make the facilities as good as we can. And as far as potential candidates, I agree there is very few options. West, Vetetoe (yes I know), and couple others that could have some interest. Whatever happens is massive for the program during a pivotal time before the next big wave of stars make their way through.
