While Memphis has a nice class, they STILL havent addressed their biggest need....a BIG man to bang down low.....This group they have committed just doesnt have that yet...so while you may have a number one class on paper, we all know that addressing your needs is the most important aspect of a recruiting class...see the 2011 Football Vols....the class may not be number one or even a top twenty...but the needs we have to fill are more important than rankings...

Tarik Black is the number 47 player in the nation. He can bang really well......No homo.

I love this gem from catspause...

Maybe it's my blue-shaded glasses, but I don't get why any recruit would want to go to any other college if UK wants him. TN, FL, Duke, UNC, Syracuse, UCONN, UCLA..it doesn't matter. None of those colleges can hold up compared to UK. Kentucky = greatest program in the history of college basketball.

Off topic, but it's crazy to me to think that most of these guys coming out of high school this year were 10 years old in 2002.

Like poster said, the have Black.

They also have Will Coleman from last years class who they seem to really like. And to be entirely honest, they don't need a big man other than to rebound for what they want to do.

Tennessee didn't have a big man until the tournament when Brian Williams grew a pair and realized he was 6'11.

If Memphis can mesh and the freshman play to their capabilities they will be pretty damn good next year. JMHO, in my honest opinion.

Even if Selby commits to us on the 17th at the Jordan game, unless he signs the paperwork right then and there, I will still not believe it. Calipari is such a snake that even if he wouldn't take Selby, he would be in his ear about it would be better for him to go to Kansas just because of his hate for Pearl and UT.

I am so damn sick and tired of these all-star kids choosing to enroll at Calipari University! The guy is a lying snake, he has had his only 2 appearances in the NCAA Finals (AT 2 DIFFERENT SCHOOLS NO LESS) erased due to fraudulent activities, his players absolutely hate him, he folds as a coach every time he gets close to winning a championship, he had the best team in college basketball history this season and still couldnt win it all even though almost half the team are lottery picks, and the guy coaches at KENSUCKY!!!! I hate that the SEC had to attract this lowlife... Maybe after this last failure of a season, some of these recruits will wise-up and realize there are much better options out there where they really may have a chance of winning in the big dance.

BTW- I got the info on the players hating Cal from a friend that had dinner with D Rose while he was attending Memphis. This is evidently a pretty common feeling among his players, however, the guy somehow still convinces these kids to play for him rather than Duke, Tenn, NC, Kansas, etc.. Tell me this guy isnt breaking a law somewhere. I just dont get why these recruits would take a chance on him anymore....

if any fan base should know never to beleive on this message board then we will never learn. So sick of rumors.

I was just naming some of the schools that Cal has gone up against and won recruits away from in the past ten years that are schools I would think would be hard to recruit against in general, considering these schools' long basketball tradition, coaches, fan bases, and financial support of their programs... FYI. Just sayin'.
