For Commercial Appeal sports reporter Jason Munz, there's a David vs. Goliath comparison to be made in the University of Memphisstanding up to the NCAA's rules and regulations regarding donations from boosters. But that clout also comes with having a team that will likely win games even with its top player sidelined for much of the season. Munz tells us that the controversy also makes for good fan fodder -- a great conspiracy theory for a program that the haters like to hate.
