He's gonna be playing with Lamelo by Monday
Not anymore for now 😂
Wrong
More reasons why great talented high schoolers won’t want to play in college.
should head overseas to play against better competition and pros like Lamelo. better for their progression anyway.
This the perfect time for the nba to step in. Sign this kid to a g league team and boost the ratings.
I've seen this too many times...COLLEGE BASKETBALL RULES AND RULINGS ARE CORRUPT!!!
@@DylGonZo the competition isnt better overseas seeing as how those leagues are full of the same type of kids that play in college now...playing in college gives you a better chance of marketing yourself as well...Pelican fans ere excited because they got to actually SEE Zion play..hard to get excited about some European player that you havent seen play....
carsonc29 one name, Luka. Now shut up you sound so dumb lol. Pro leagues have more competition than college by far. Sorry not sorry.
This is why melo isn’t dealing with ncaa
GARDEN STATE SMOKE melo isn’t dealing with the NCAA because he had his own shoes not because he didn’t want to if it was because he had a preference list before he went to Australia let’s be real
@@kickoutpodcast8436 learn to spell bro
Prod.lilcarl26 umm my spelling is good bro
GARDEN STATE SMOKE he didn’t graduate
Yeh that’s why. Not because he’s ineligible or anything
Imagine making millions off of corrupting college kids.
Jonathan Sanders try billions
What I would like to know is how is helping a high school athlete and his family relocate from one city to another corrupting the athlete?
@@asmodeus9944 hes talking bout colleges making the money off these kids but not letting the kids enjoy the fruits of their labor
More like exploiting them.
@@Borch12 Oh okay
The players need to boycott the entire NCAA tournament
Yep come to the nbl
@@waydos1234 do you think it would work
They may as well, it’s not like the NCAA are paying them to play
Why because he broke the rule l. Penny should be suspended to.
Feel free to do that. No one wants cheaters like Hardaway!!
I swear one of those days the NCAA won’t have anything but 3 star players to recruit cause all the 4 and 5 stars will go overseas
T B the world is grey. Not black and white
T B stfu
@T B you gotta remember dude we are just a hop and a step away from pedophilia being legal. You truly expect people to carry about rules and traditions?
@T B so kids that have the opportunity to improve their families' lives shouldn't take it? Yeah thats great advice, let's just perpetuate more of the NCAA greed, offering near worthless degrees in exchange for billions made in college sports
@T B says the person who j walks every year
This makes no sense smh
Makes perfect sense. The NCAA is a corrupt and greedy monopoly. They will do anything to retain as much power for as long as they can since they line their pockets. They know their time will be up soon though.
@shane it's about sending a message. If they set the line at $0, they keep all the power
dumb, wiseman is the most dominant player in this draft, and they're not gonna let him play. They all ready banned the most talented player in the draft, Lamelo ball. The ncaa is gonna regret this.
Jeremiah Gilyard melo most talented...good 🧢
CloutCollecter Nah you capping wiseman can literally do everything at 7’1
Most talentrd is snthony edwards
Jeremiah Gilyard Most talented is Deni.
Their trying to get their suspensions out before they get paid 🤣 it only hurts their game by not having the best players in their sport playing
Kobe Jamez ur on some freaky chit lol
Kobe Jamez calm down Chico
dre121bmore Paid ❓
Oh, .......Reality 😂
ZCorp Alpha it’s just crazy they really giving out suspensions like this
dre121bmore NCAA is a business, sometimes the economics can be very cruel
Solution: Get on a Plane to Australia, get $$$$ to play, & still get drafted @ No.1 🤔
This is why i keep saying,why does potential NBA prospects always gotta go through this,just let them go to the pros after highschool period,let them earn a living...this is bullsh$t!!!!
I wonder if someone high up in the NCAA still hates on Memphis from Coach Calipari's former unproven "activities" while he was there with players like Derek Rose and Tyreke Evans.
The man wasn’t the coach at Memphis when this happened......NCAA some real player haters.....and Memphis still got a squad .....it’s still Memphis against err body!!!!!
Believe that mane! 💪
Aw yeaaa(901)
this music to lamelo ball ears
James should leave and go to Australia with LaMelo simply because Melo already has a lot of attention drawn towards him. It would be a win-win-win for LaMelo, James, and Illawarra.
He playing right now lol
Rich Paul has entered the chat
He’ll still get to the nba which is his ultimate goal I’d imagine
This is the best news for him. Go overseas and get paid. You'll still be a the minimum top 3 in the draft.
The NCAA makes my blood boil man
Lavar Ball had this exposed so that LaMelo Ball could flourish even more. Possibly flourish into the #1 pick. Lavar put up some money
he ain’t no genius
Lamelo should try to be a NFL tight end
Rich Paul is licking his chops over this😂
Trying to destroy this man's basketball career because of a mentor?? 🤬
Was so excited to see him play this season . Idk why but he gives me Anthony Davis vibes when he plays . Looked like he could be the best player on the team
David Robinson 2.0 or maybe even Greg Oden with good posture and a jumpshot. He plays bigger than Anthony Davis.
So hes not playing this season?? Warriors will pick him
how?
FACTS
Facts
@Squanchy Digs Your Squanch he can get drafted regardless because he went to college by the rules
@@nehemiahhoward8230 facts
And he still will be in the NBA
Periodt!
He helped his family move 3 hrs from Nashville to Memphis? Wow NCAA you've really outdone yourself
How ironic that both the potential number one picks in the NFL and NBA draft are in a cloud of controversy.
Wow just wow, Penny wasn’t even the coach at Memphis 🤦🏽♂️
He is the Head Coach
Penny is our coach. Might wanna do some research
@@Yesboiii99 might wanna read what he said again, he wasn't the coach when he helped the kids family and him move to Memphis. Therefore he shouldn't be considered a booster cause he didn't do anything while he was head coach to bring Wiseman there.
Neither one of you must’ve actually watched the video, cause they clearly say he helped moved him before he was the head coach at Memphis hints why I said what I said. I’m good.
@@DylGonZo I had an emotional reaction. I'm from Memphis. This is the most excited the city has been in decades. Not even the Derrick Rose year compared to this
Penny wasn't employed at Memphis back then, and once he became head coach he is no longer considered a booster, because he is now an employee of the university, so screw the NCAA and their unclear rules 👎
Is he eligible for the draft? Or can he play overseas to be eligible for the draft? Or do you even need to play to be eligible?
Welcome to the NBL
if I was a top recruit with NBA lottery potential after my freshman year, I would rather join the nbl. This is literally like "studying abroad"
I was a Memphis fan as a kid, the great Keith Lee, Coach Dana Kirk. I thought this year would be the year. I'm so upset right now.
This is what happens when you choose to go to a team other than Kentucky, Kansas, or Duke. The NCAA shuts you down.
Wiseman working out with the warriors as we speak
Anyone know if he is still draft eligible for next year?
Not sure if you’re talking about Darius Bazley on OKC he interned for New Balance instead of playing college ball and still got drafted last year, but thanks for the insight
Hello Sage!
It didn’t take long, Memphis fans are going to blame Calipari!!🤣🤣
And with the 1st Overall pick in the 2020 NBA draft, the GSW selects ....
Golden state tanking for him
Facts
@Squanchy Digs Your Squanch he will be eligible in the upcoming draft he can play as soon as he is 19 which is March and if you wanna be technical when he turns 19 he can sign as a free agent like Lamar Odom was gonna do and the NCAA took him off suspension
Squanchy Digs Your Squanch he has to be a year removed from HS. It’s not about waiting a full year of college. The NCAA and the NBA rules are totally different
@@eczotiic8026 19 years old
He left high school in may the nba draft is in july he has to turn 19 b4 the draft
Lol they tryn so hard to keep their power
young dude the only reason i was about to watch the ncaa this year fucking up the brackets. i guess i can still watch cole anthony he nice.
Ellis sounds excited that he is out.
I am from Memphis . they got Leslie ballin as the attorney.. He DON'T lose...
So is he gonna be ineligible for some games Or the Whole Season? Because if it’s the whole season I think he should might as well go play in the NBL
King Gaming100 whole...nbl🤢 for what
CloutCollecter well if it isn’t obvious for you enough in The NBL You already got many NBA scouts attending those games to watch RJ and Lamelo so it will already be easy for teams to go scout him so he won’t lose any stock value plus in the NBL Some teams got some National televised games or should I say deals with ESPN for you to watch him and There is also really good competition for him there maybe he could even play against RJ and Lamelo if He choses to go there so it’s a really good option, imo it’s the best option for him besides playing in the NCAA
Him and Lamelo finna be fire
Screw NCAA. NBA should just accept 18-year-olds.
The kids should play pro ball, if they want, follow Luka Doncic advice and go play euroleague, or G league, or China, the NCAA has to stop all of this, they make tons of money because of this kids, either the one and done rule is over, or paid the kids man at least something
Let that man play !!
Someone leaked this on purpose. My guess one of the top schools.
NCAA knew about this back in May...when Hardaway disclosed it...and they cleared him.
I'd sit James Wiseman until the whole NCAA situation is over if I was Memphis. Ain't no telling how this turns out especially after the news regarding East during the 2017-2018.
Man said nfl draft at the beginning
Eff the NCAA. Fine the coach or school (which still wouldn't be fair), but don't punish the player who did nothing wrong.
We're going to find out that the #1 draft [ick in 2023 will be ruled ineligible because his cousin, who once gave a $10 donation to a Uni to get the annoying door-to-door knocker off his porch, gave him a lunchbox for his fourteenth birthday and hence is ruled ineligible. Absurd.
These rules that you can't get any kind of help from anyone are ridiculous. "Wait he helped him move boxes." Violation!
He said NFL draft
Alexander Sandoval 🤦♂️
Listen
@@Brandon-uu2tj nah at the beginning
@@thomasjefferson2813 Yeah, talking about Chase Young for the NFL then transitioned to Wiseman for the NBA. Listen more than 5 seconds kid.
@@MafiaboysWorld oh lol
0:03 dude said NFL
LOL
WinterXL ohh
LOL analysts for the past week talked about Penny Hardaway as a good coach, but all of a sudden this comes out? Did the higher ups at ESPN know about this beforehand to prepare for this?
The NCAA knew about the move when they made him eligible back in May...Hardaway disclosed it and,they still ruled him eligible...this is the NCAA's fault....not the kid or coach's.
Wisemen will be a great center for the Golden State Warriors
James Wiseman looks like Kendrick Nunn 💀
When a crime is committed (and this is indeed a crime) the 1st thing to focus on is who stands to benefit the most from it. The answer is simple...OTHER (jealous) COLLEGE COACHES!!!
What a coincidence penny played a role in a film about receiving benefits to play for a college.
NCAA keeps digging themselves a bigger hole 🕳 I hope most top recruits just play professional ball if they have a real shot at making it to the league
Wiseman to the Knicks in 2021 with the #1 pick confirmed
*2020
Kobe Klay they just said he is ineligible for 2020
NV_1790 he’s ineligible for 2019-20 season which is this season.
Did he really say Memphis State? We’ve been the University of Memphis for 25 years! And we’ll keep moving forward. Go Tigers Go!
I actually like Memphis State and the old Jerseys. I remember visiting North Mississippi from Chicago and Going to the games with my Uncle
flysociety yes, I liked Memphis State, too. I grew up watching them play basketball and football, but it changed a long time ago. :)
Yes, they should sue, sue, and sue again the NCAA. Because he help pull major players to coach Hardaway, there's a lot of bitterness toward him.
Wow, even more sad is that they go after the player instead of penny who they "claim" was in the wrong. The man just wants to hoop at the highest level. No point in in ruling him ineligable
Why not signing him as a free agent to a 10 day contact? Is there a rule against this?
Wiseman is playing tonight against ICU at the Fed Ex Forum. A Shelby County Judge ruled in Wiseman favor so F off ncaa. Go Tigers Go
The ncaa is getting crazy with all these suspensions
0:03 ? Lol
Ive been telling everyone Wiseman wont make it to the NFL
BmoreBirds22 word he’s going to the NBA
@@gurik9080 r/wooosh
IMO, the NCAA feels like it needs to be super aggressive and over reactive because it feels like its losing control..im sure they are feeling TONS of public pressure to hand out penalties for every small thing...
So much for the PennyWise references this season.
Jamal Abdelbaset lol
I feel for Memphis
I wish people would boycott the NCAA tournament one year. That would be enough to envoke change.
COME TO THE NBL, us kiwis and aussies will help you move and let you play still 👌🏼
Please stay out of our country, thankyou- USA
His family got help moving to a new city. The NCAA is punishing the kid. There isn't a word in the English language to describe the anger right now.
0:03 NFL draft?
Why does everybody think this kid is grown. He's a teenager, I don't consult my kid when I'm making decisions. Did your people consult you when making decisions when you were 16. Can't punish the kid for decisions made by adults. Punish him for decisions made after he turns 18.
That’s truly unfortunate because he looks like David Robinson 2.0. I don’t know how he is mentally, but basketball skill wise....yeah....David Robinson 2.0 or Greg Oden with good posture and a jumpshot
Everyone already forgot about Zion
So I guess you can’t help someone moved now?
I smell the hate and greed from the NCAA y’all about yourselves 💯 but it’s a blessing in disguise he about to be rested and ready for the NBA
I cant help but to think these moves are political.
The NCAA has got to go!!! I love how a group of people earn millions on the backs of unpaid players .... only to stop anyone else from profiting off of these players
So tonight is his last game with Memphis?
Yes
Won't hurt his draft position. I heard Memphis is still playing him.
This is why I didn't want Penny Hardaway hired as head coach! I knew something like this would happen! It just happened sooner than I expected! This will become a disaster just like I predicted! All you Tigers fans can criticize me all you want but I'm a realist and it is what it is!!!
I did not see Lamelo Ball included on their 2020 draft big board, hmmmmmm.
Rick Barnes
let the kid play if penny made the mistake suspend him or fire him it's not the kids fault
I don't get why this happened, isn't because of some sort of conflict of interest, I'm confused
Had this kid went to Duke Uk or North Carolina or Michigan st this wouldn’t be a issue. The ncaa wouldn’t say anything
the move occurred in 2017
I don’t know how he can work out in the NBA, he ain’t got a jumper and can’t bully big guys in the NBA
A left handed big man that can play like a guard?? That's my game right now at 39 😁😁😁😁
Yo LaPhonzzy... Do ur homework- it hasn't been called Memphis State in over 20 freaking years!!! Its the University of Memphis there homey....
He’ll still go top 3
