T$$AA should just close their doors on the whole recruiting issue in high school athletics. At the end of the day the only schools they can penalize are the small county  schools and maybe one or two individuals. They can’t stop this machine called “Memphis” basketball. You can’t blame a kid for wanting to play on a national level nor should we hold them back from doing so. I’m all for disbanding T$$AA and may the best team win!

You are absolutely right. Only people will be penalized is the schools in small towns. Memphis is Transfer County. It will be transfers every year and it will not stop. That’s just how it goes.

Toss the rules book. Admit that 99% of high school student/athletes don't have a chance at winning a state championship. Let the courts run it.

TSSAA should back off the practice rules and summer restrictions. This would stop a lot of the transfers across the state. Coaches get more time with their kids and the kids might wanna stay. Memphis is going to be Memphis and teams like East aren't going to always exist.

This is about as good as it gets. Lomax is playing out of his mind in this game, Dandridge is great, Boyce and Wiseman are big-time players. They handled this team like a JV team.

Chandler Lawson is also playing lights out. Even his younger brother isn't imtimidated in the moment. Nor is the other freshman ... Brown.

Well trained younger people could be the answer. More lawyers, judges and chancellors, now that's the ticket.

Watching Memphis East on ESPN. They'll beat a lot of college teams in TN.

Everyone is playing for 2nd place.

I teach in MO. Webster Grove is the best the state has to offer. East made them look like a middle school team. ME is the best high school  team I have ever seen.

Watched some of the East- Webster Grove game. Utterly incredible high school basketball.

Stats from East's big four from the game tonight against Webster Groves. Malcolm and Alo both had double doubles. J Wiseman was 1 rebound shy of a double double.

East is stacked like no other...thats no doubt. But, in my opinion Lomax and Dandridge are the heart and soul of the team.

Put all of East players on one college team they could win the NCAA championship in 3 to 4 years.
