Memphis has a TON of potential

Not sure where you get your information but this in no way is true. The city of Memphis has some decent football talent each year, that's about all it has going for it though. I take that back, now that Cannon Smith is on the team they have Fred Smith in their pocket.

Schools like Tulsa and South Florida have thrown and continue to throw millions upon millions of dollars into their football programs. Memphis struggled to get $3 million for a new weight room. Memphis's practice facilities are terrible. They actually can't practice at their facilities if the weather is bad, they have to go to a local high school that has a field turf field, and their indoor facility is way too small for a team to really even practice in.

With Fred Smith on their side things can definitely change, but Memphis has a long way to go to even be considered as having any kind of potential.
