Right now our chances are as good as anybody's I'd say, but theres about 5-6 schools that all have that same chance IMO.

Thanks. And thanks for putting all this together. I was just taking a look today at the 2013 recruiting and thought it would be nice to have the list all in one place!

No problem, I enjoy doing this stuff!

I am afraid King will be hard to pull away from Memphis, but who knows. We landed Stokes when so many Memphians believed he was their's to lose. Of course I realize that this had a lot to do with our having an open scholly available mid-season and all, but still a d*%$ good pull by CCM and let's hope he continues to do well in this area. Look at how many of our targets are in Memphis.

What ever happened to the guy named Chris Jones that was supposed to be so good from Memphis or Jackson? I believe he had some academic issues but committed to Pearl and went JC. I thought I saw somewhere that he was part of UTEP's class but his scholarship wasn't going to be honored by their new HC or something. I wonder what happened there? The guy seemed to have some serious skills, but then Pearl leaves and he ends up at UTEP?! Anyway, I guess if he is any good CCM will be taking a look if he is released by UTEP.

I agree I do think king is going to be hard to pull from Memphis, and if I had to guess Memphis would be his landing spot. However there really just Is no telling, and it's a great sign that were still in the mix.

Chris Jones that was part of UTEPs class was a completely different Chris jones. The Chris jones you are referring to is still in juco for 1 more year before he can go d1.

Lots of talent coming out of Memphis.

By the way Nick King would be considered a small forward at 6'7". Not a shooting guard.

So just cause King is 6,7 that makes him small foward instead of shooting guard. Well magic was 6,8 or 6,9 and he was a pg and there are alot of other examples.it would be nice to land king and another player or two out of memphis and also get Munson or Thornwell.Or land four top 100 players. A question if Ut can get that pg would they take him over landry if three or four of the others on list woild come to Tennessee.

Nick King is a small forward.

Also, take this for whatever you want, King is right at the top of Pastner's recruiting board, Adonis Thomas-style. Memphis will make it a priority to keep him in the city in 2013. Doesn't mean he'll 100% be a Tiger, but it'll be hard to outwork the Memphis staff for him.

Really solid bleeding. Thanks for putting in the work bro!

The state is on fire when it comes to recruiting this year. A ton of elite talent lingering around the Memphis area. If we could just wrap up the guys in state, we'd be absolutely set!

Also, watch for Q Stephens. He's fixing to blow up on the charts but likely to the ACC and Tech.

Nope. Don't worry about comming off cocky about King because I think Pastner has one heck of a player. No way I see him leaving the city. He's at the top of my want list but there is so much talent this year in the area that Pastner can't offer them all and I feel good having Martin go up against Anderson if he's aggresive.
