Memphis seems to be going all in on this. I say good for them. With what UNC and Duke has gotten by with I would dare the NCAA to act if I were Memphis. And if they did hand down punishment I would point out the selective enforcement that goes on to anyone who will listen (media). Also, I would take them to court so it would be publicized.
Memphis injunction...

The NCAA will crush Memphis out of existence if this happens. There's a lot smarter folks out there at different universities and there's reason no one has done this yet.

This isn’t going to help college basketball. This isn’t the hill memphis should go to die on. Clearly a major violation was committed, clearly wiseman is ineligible. A booster who is now his coach provided improper benefits. This **** wouldn’t even be allowed in the nba. It would be some form of tampering and would warrant major penalties and fines. This doesn’t compare with bagley or with UNcheat. This is very clear and penny screwed wiseman. There’s nothing to fight if you have no standing. To take things further now memphis played an ineligible player so now the entire program is in jeopardy.
The second penny was hired everyone knew the conflicts of interest would rear their head. You can’t be an aau coach and a high school coach simultaneously connected to a school then pull your high school guys with you without stepping in it somewhere. Penny may be a crusader to try and take down the ncaa but he will fail Bc he is a sleazebag.
Wiseman can plead willful ignorance all he wants but his parents are basically his agent especially when he was a child.
I’m assuming you are a Memphis fan. Penny could in fact be playing this angle. This is a very dangerous gamble.
I would be curious to know what Memphis opinion is on this. If I were in their shoes, I’d self identify, announce a post season ban, forfeit any game where he was in uniform, publicly announce that I planned to penalize Penny to the maximum extent permitted by his contract. If I were the NCAA, I would posterize Memphis.
I don’t expect either outcome.
Patiently waiting for the NCAA to absolutely ***** slap UM.
A UNC or Duke player being declared ineligible? LOL, Marvin Bagley completed a years worth of HS in 2 weeks.
Cory Magette and Lance Thomas? Although the NCAA never declared them so.
And decades of players for UNC.
EDIT: Ahh, I just noticed the “declared” in your post.
His comment to me was:
Memphis compliance does not have final say if there is a judge who has ordered the school to consider Wiseman eligible until the legal questions are resolved. Ignoring the court’s order would result in contempt of court charges against the Memphis personnel responsible.
I’m hardly splitting hairs. The above is just an absurd statement.
You are so right! Anyone believing that can’t smell the crap on their shoes because they live in an outhouse.
No he’s not. Compliance department always has the final say if someone plays or not. Your smoking the same **** he is if you think otherwise.
What has been the punishment for any of those schools? UofL had to take down a banner that’s it.
What is your flawed expectation here? He research all past rulings, ever, to say in fact it hasn’t ever happened? Wrong. Just wrong.
Yes they did but they don’t really have the final say on his eligibility. If he is ultimately deemed ineligible then it doesn’t matter what their temporary order did. Memphis should not have played him at all until this was resolved. It’s called erring on the side of caution. The NCAA has already said he is likely ineligible so there is an uphill battle. Memphis still had a choice to play him or not and they chose to play him.
You’re really showing your ***. Quit arguing. We get you’re an attorney who will argue until the end, even when you’re wrong.
You need to read the resolution rule. Yes, they can ignore the judges order but that has consequences. They can also ignore the NCAA, that has consequences. He is eligible legally, at the moment Since he sued Memphis as well as the NCAA, not playing him is an issue. The compliance office is out if it as this point. The only issue is if the coach/school decide to play him, which they did.
That’s the only punishment. So basically do what you want but if you win the title, then we may deal with you.
Maybe it was lil penny who paid. That’s their defense and their sticking to it.
All these schools that have been caught cheating, what’s happened to them? Nothing. And nothing will happen because of money and attorneys. Just like North Carolina.
I'll say it. It's dumb Wiseman even got suspended. Penny was an AAU coach when he moved Wiseman
You can take them to court for what? They are a private organization and the members voluntarily joined and agreed to abide by their rules. The courts prefer not to get involved in cases involving private organizations and how they enforce their rules.

No. It didn't even do that much. People think that because a judge rules in one way or another it's automatically true. That isn't so. Judges are not dictators. They can only rule over the law. This isn't law, it's an NCAA guideline. Not only Memphis but more importantly the NCAA could tell the judge to go take a flying leap. The judge can literally do nothing here. He can't even hold the NCAA in contempt.
Next the word corruption in the dictionary is a map of Memphis.
Well UNCheat did for twenty years but who’s counting
Not to mention Thomas getting a 70K line of credit for jewelry. Which he didn't even pay back.
Just my opinion, all of this could have been avoided had Hardaway disclosed the payment during Wisemans initial clearance. Not doing so means one of two things to me.
He either new he would be ruled ineligible or is ignorant of the NCAA's eligibility rules.

No they haven't. You consider them ineligible but they were never ruled ineligible.
Why can he. The NCAA has no reason to show up in his court. The court has no jurisdiction here and judges can't just randomly declare people in contempt. He would be impeached in about 2 minutes if he tried that. Besides who would he rule in contempt? The NCAA is a big organization. Is he going to jail them all? Good luck.
Again same deal. What's he going to hold them in contempt for? And who exactly would he do that with? Penny? The AD, school president? No one has done anything that can be cited for contempt.
Then recruited him to Memphis. You’re not serious I hope.
