Both kids that Memphis has offered and wants.

Coach Martin is getting close.
It looks like hes a hell of a coach. If turns out to be as good at recruiting we're in store for some great basketball in the future!

With the recent developments of King and JWIII, this needs to be brought up again.

Nichols looks like a Vol lock IMO. We are still in the top two for Markel Crawford. We are in it for Sam Edwards. We are in the top three and top four for Johnathan Williams III and Nick King respectively. We were actually out of it for King two months ago. Now we are back in it.

I really think CCM is going to get into Memphis. I really do.

I know hubbs isn't from menphis, but west Tennessee, helluva a lot closer to Memphis than UT, and we're in his top 2.

I really want to explode in happiness, but we NEED them to commit before we get too crazy.

But I am really excited.

As a basketball fan, I would be surprised if Cuonzo doesn't routinely get recruits from the Memphis area.

as much talent as Memphis puts out, you don't have to "beat out Memphis" to get some good players...

I expect Memphis to get Nick King and JaJuan Johnson out of Memphis...that leaves JW3, Nichols, and Hubbs.

Crawford deserves to be on that list.

Newbern is about 90 miles and LIGHT years away from Memphis.

He seems like a good coach...I'll be curious to see if he can put a whole season together...starting out 10-12 won't get it done.

Just like I will be curious to see if Josh can get the two "monkeys off his back" this season...a top 25 win...and a NCAA tourney win.

if not, his seat will get VERY hot...of course, this will be his best team while at Memphis...3 McDonalds All Americans and 2 four-star players make up the starting 5...if he can't win with that kind of talent...something is wrong.

Yup, although I don't care much about the top 25 wins, he needs to start winning in March.

Pastner will get his chance this year right? The Big East will give him plenty of opportunities to prove he can get the job done or show the Memphis AD that it is time to move on.

We start Big East play next year, but he'll get chances this year as well.
