From the brilliant mind of Steve Maz.. Penny Hardaway.. Hmm

Just saw Hardaway has now secured the #1 recruiting class for 2019 which by far is the most important job as a head coach these days. So, when we are looking for our next coach in two years I will be the first on the Camby train!

As long as Camby knows who the bag man is for all the high rated recruits I say bring him in!

Penny is executing a very specific plan he's been working on for 4-5 years now going back to his days coaching East High....he brings in Tyler Harris, Alex Lomax, DJ Jeffries, and James Wiseman while Mike Miller brings in Boogie Ellis and Precious Achiuwa. (along with Jalen Green in 2020)

what will be interesting is what happens after 2020-21 when he no longer has connections to up and coming kids and Mike Miller has moved on to wherever.

If he can win with this current group, then the kids will keep coming after that as he will be a proven coaching commodity.

It would also help if he could get a guy (or 3) drafted in the lottery range. To compete at that level he wants to be at getting kids into the NBA would be a huge recruiting tool.
