Will not end well.

Memphis administration initially shot down the hire but Hardaway pushed for it and finally got it done.

 

[Briancuse]

He's 80.

Like any Larry Brown experiment it may start off great, but slowly or quickly fizzle into disaster.

Why just why?

Because God is good and this gives us all something to talk about and look forward to in the upcoming season.

This one is a head scratcher

He will teach Penny the finer points of cheating - no sanctioning body to stop him anymore so Penny is adding to his bag of tricks.

Larry is bored again I guess. Surprised he had any takers.

seems a great asst imo...how bad can an asst mess anything up??

Reminds me of a good Larry Brown story I heard on Rome once.

I mean he's a great bball mind but he's 80 and has been away from bball for what 5 years now. Not sure how much he has left.

See the Louisville/ Kansas/ LSU/ Arizona thread for answers to your question...

Didn't Larry used to coach there?

I'm sure he remembers where the cheerleaders' locker rooms are.
