@JasonSmith929 @samhardiman Appreciate it. I’m not in Memphis anymore but I’m assuming this is related to the $70M the state gave to the city for downtown improvements?

BREAKING: North Alabama 6’9” big Corneilous Williams (@C2W___) has committed to Memphis, he tells me. Averaged nearly a double-double last season with 12.3 PPG and 9.3 REB. Analytics love him as a rebounder: - 90th percentile for OREB% (12.9%) - 88th percentile for DREB% (20.9%). Addresses a major need for next season’s roster.

BREAKING: Southern Miss transfer 6’7” wing Tylik Weeks has committed to Memphis, per multiple sources. Averaged 19.7 PPG and 5.4 REB last season. Profiles as an athletic, shot-creating wing who loves to pick his spots in the mid-range. Chose Memphis over Ole Miss, while receiving plenty of other HM+ interest. Hell of a recruiting job by Penny and Trevor DeLoach.

NEWS: Southern Miss transfer 6’7” wing Tylik Weeks is visiting Memphis today, per source. Weeks just completed a visit to Ole Miss last week, and it’s widely viewed as a battle between those two teams for Weeks. Weeks is one of the best offensive wings in the transfer portal and would be a major pickup for Memphis.

@mgiannotto @929espn Bc my man @JasonSmith929 asked the hard questions when most DO NOT!!! He has the intelligence and integrity to go anywhere he wants to in my opinion. He’s a class act, has the sense of humor but honest at the same time. Real talk

NEWS: After wrapping up his Missouri visit yesterday, Texas A&M transfer G Josh Holloway tells me that he will be visiting Memphis next. “Penny and staff have prioritized me since the portal opened.” In limited minutes last season, the analytics loved Holloway: 94th percentile in RAPM (4.4) 90th percentile in STL% Interested to see how these numbers look with a larger role against worse competition.

“Penny is a Hall of Fame coach. Getting coached under his legacy, it’s my job to repay Penny & the Memphis program & try to get that back.” Penny has history w/ small guards. In a do-or-die year, he’s putting belief in Northwestern transfer Jayden Reid. dailymemphian.com/subscriber/sec…

BREAKING: SEMO transfer 6’3” G Luke Almodovar has committed to Memphis, he tells me. Averaged 14.1 PPG and 3.7 REB on 43/32/76 shooting splits last season. He joins Brandin Cummings + Jayden Reid as incoming transfers to Memphis’ backcourt for next season. Very good athlete with some real wiggle to his handle. Mostly used as a 2-guard (70% of jump shots off the catch + 43% of poss off spot ups/screens) but showed creation upside last season. Not afraid to let it fly from deep (6.3 attempts per game).
