Did anyone else see Memphis Coach Hardaway's Comments about the New G League. Essentially he feels that the League is tampering with Player's by recruiting them from High School and depriving them of the opportunity to get a College Education, and he is especially disturbed by the League enticing Players who have committed to Universities but jump to the League and never play in College.
Where to start?
1. I'm sure if we pulled up the Graduation Rate Stats from Memphis Basketball over the past 5 Years we would find out how committed he and the University are to Player's Education.
2 . The G League signing a Player he has recruited is tampering, but his continued recruiting of a Player who has committed to another School is not tampering and is morally and ethically acceptable.
3. If he is under contract to Memphis for several more years, and another College wants to hire him and pay him more money to Coach there, it is not tampering for him to accept the interview and accept the job if that School can reach a financial buyout with Memphis.
Sometimes it is better to stay in your Glass House and keep your Mouth Shut.
