Lived in Memphis for four years, and it is a wildly segregated city. Knoxville is too, but there is just a smaller presence of people of color in general. It's odd. I liked Memphis, but to be honest, it has all the same problems of any large southern city, i.e. New Orleans and Atlanta.

Memphis sounds lovely...if you love crime.5. Memphis, Tennessee | Most Dangerous Cities In America | Comcast.net

Knoxville is a bit more to my liking...In Pictures: America's Best Places To Raise A Family - No. 8: Knoxville, Tenn. - Forbes.com

I agree...I loved my time in Memphis, but it does have its problems. Cities are just like that, and as opposed to cities in the north, I think the south is far more honest and up front with their issues, especially racial issues. While this may not always be productive, I appreciate that people don't always try to act like there's not a problem when there is. I'd take Memphis over places like Baltimore or Pittsburgh any day.

Edit: I'll take Knox over them all though. Always going to love home.

Sam doesnt have an attitude problem! Also...I understand why he changed schools. If you saw the teams in 1A, you'd know that he isnt equipped to play that style of ball. He will be about 7'2" by start of next season. Growing so fast that his body cant keep up, no control over it.

If you reverse racism you don't have any racism. Sorry dude that is one of the dumbest terms used because it means absolutely nothing.

My sources are telling me he will wind up around 8'7 this time next year. With a 62" vertical too. 9' wingspan as well.

Geez sorry for trying to share some info on a recruit, didn't mean for it to turn into another stokes growing thread. Just thought I'd give an update on the guys height.

Bleeding, who cares about his height man!! What's important is "what size shoe does he wear?" From now on I expect to see shoe size in every recruits thread when you list their rivals analysis.
