    Penny and Grant Hill are two players whose careers could’ve been one of the greats if not ruined by injuries. It’s a fact not a guess because it was there already, we saw it in the beginning.

    Was a Bulls fan but I was also such a huge Penny fan (had the black jersey and the sneakers, too). If he didn't go through all those injuries over and over, he could have been Kobe-level (same thing could be said about GHill). Young people don't realize that young Penny was a legit young superstar just a few years before Kobe arrived. He did not score as much as Kobe but he could do everything. Always flirting with a triple double. And just as exciting to watch as Kobe or AI or T-Mac or Vince. In 1994-95, only his 2nd season. Penny averaged 21 pts, 5 rebs, 7 asts, shot 51% from the field. Penny & Shaq led the Orlando Magic all the way to the NBA Finals. They were on their way to winning game-1 vs Hakeem's Rockets. They were leading all the way, down to the closing minute, when Nick Anderson missed 4 consecutive FT's. Damn!

    As a Cincinnati Bearcats fan, I gained a tremendous amount of respect for Penny, in the early 90's, while he was leading then Memphis State, under their late head coach, Larry Finch. Memphis State was Cincinnati's hardest opponent then, Penny and Cincinnati's Nick Van Exel, had some NBA style battles against one another.
    Memphis is gonna' be scary with Penny as their head coach moving forward, he's gonna' get all of the best boys out of Memphis basically, and plus, his name will help him to recruit outside of Tennessee. I think he can get them back to national prominence, he knows the game backwards and forwards, and he was a PG, so I know he can coach...
