is ranked #1 in the country playing the #13 team in the country Webster (TN) on ESPN2 right now and destroying them. Penny Hardaway is the coach. Do we have no shot ever to get a player from this school? Seems like there's a new HS basketball factory set up in Memphis right now.
My impression of Memphis basketball kids.... It would have to be a kid that none of the National brands, Mem, UT or OM wanted.
Well there's two big guys they got both about 6'11 that would start for us right now. One of them is just a junior. He dunked like 4 times in the first ten minutes I was watching.Quote:

James Wiseman and Malcolm Dandridge are the two bigs that are impressive. They both are juniors. Wiseman we have no chance with. He's the #1 overall player in the country. Dandridge we might have a shot with but he already has offers from Florida, Bama, OM etc...
East has always been a GREAT basketball school. When I played at ECS in Memphis in the early nineties East was in our district. That was back when private schools still played public schools for state championships.
If anyone is familiar with the Memphis area this was our district for sports back then:
ECS
Briarcrest
Harding Academy
MUS
East
Treadwell (where Penny played - it's shut down now though)
Kinsbury
Ridgeway
I've said many times, it was probably the strangest district in America.
Houlka beat Columbus the other night.Quote:
