Y'all really aren't as talented as you think you are. Your pace/defense will keep you in games because that's what that style of play does but your shot was last year. I'm willing to bet that Memphis wins the conference by 2+ games. With a more talented team, y'all barely scraped by them last year. Now? C'mon. I'm a UNC fan and even I know when to back off my squad and we've actually recently won a Natty lol.

Memphis class this year is one of the best we've ever seen and on par with classes like UNC's 06 class (Lawson, Ellington, Wright), Kentucky's 2011 class (Davis, MKG, Teague), Duke's '14 class (Okafor, Jones, Winslow), and Duke's 2018 class (RJ, Zion, Reddish).

You lost 3 starters from last years team, Grimes who was the AAC POY, and Jarreau/Gorham who were both All-AAC players. The best player you have coming in is Kyler Edwards...

beekay414 Posted August 26, 2021 Share Posted August 26, 2021 Losing Grimes, Jarreau and Gorham isn't something that a program like Houston just overcomes in one season. Especially not with Taze Moore and Kyler Edwards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure how they're going to be better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely coming after a 7-13 start in 2 years and coming off a New Mexico Bowl loss to...*checks notes*...Hawaii. Won't even get into the Tom Herman stuff lmao.
