I know the class is mostly signed, but will there be any possible signees today?

Anthony Landphere will return to school due to the additional year for JUCO talent.

Bryan, John, others - What other Memphis players will be able to return?

The Tigers grabbed an emphatic 100-77 win over UAB yesterday to grab possession of first place in the AAC. I've been critical of Penny in the past, which was fair, but he's been impressive through 20 games, and I want to give the coach his flowers for how self-aware he is of his roster. Who knows if he's the answer, and we've seen tumbles from grace, but despite what some fans will have you think, Penny has been impressive this season

Candidates:
-Brendon Lewis, Nevada transfer, scrambler, 24 years old
-Antwann Hill Jr., 4 star, pocket passer, 17 years old
-Arrington Maiden, RS FR, former 3 star, improviser, 19 years old
-Harris Boyd, RS SPH, former 3 star, pocket passer, 20ish years old

Tigers finish the season ranked for the first time since 2019.
