Greg King

Ok then subtract McClendon, add Bram Cannon and Morgan Cox. I didnt mention them earlier bc I have no idea who they are personally but they are on the roster so...
 
Dan Williams and Chris Walker are from Memphis so is Jeff Cottam. Hunter Vinson and McClendon is from very near Memphis also. Victor Thomas is from Olive Branch which is nothing but another Memphis suburb which is also where current commit Aubrey Phillips reigns from as well, just over the state line in MS. I dont think we have been all that bad at locking up memphis talent. We just seem to miss out on a couple of big name prospects from there every year. Past couple of years CEO has been the biggest reason for this when he waas at Ole Miss. If we get Brown & King this year, it certainly would make a statement about our recruiting prowess that would be heard in every front office in the SEC.


Have we had royalty on the roster before? :p
 
I don't see how King doesn't sign with Tennessee.

I loved this quote:

"The ride over was the best part," King said. "It was my first time to East Tennessee. I saw nature. It was such a good sight."

poor Memphis kids...

(new Rivals article)

if it's nature he wants then he sure as heck isn't going to find it in Lubbock
 
Heading from Knoxville to Memphis might be the baddest trip of all time. Almost makes a man sad when it gets that flat.
 
I've heard it said about King that he lacks dicipline on the field and may not have good instinct. He also didn't play well in a big game or two this year. Just a very good physical ability.

So basically a Tennessee basketball player. A renegade. We will be able to use him. Monte will whip him into shape
 
I'm from Memphis as well and I can tell you the trip is 3 hours of beautiful hills and 3 hours of flat, dull country.

I grew up in the Memphis area before I moved to Chattanooga in 1998 and both mine and my wife's families are still in West TN and I hate the drive on the holidays. Chattanooga is beautiful and I never want to move back to Memphis!
 
Per Scout:

"The visit to Tennessee went real good," said Greg King. "I liked the environment up there. I felt like I was at home. I can go up there and take care of business."

"We went out of the tunnel, and I was really feeling it inside the stadium. The people down there are pretty cool. The coaches, players and I kicked it."

"We kicked it almost the whole time with coach Kiffin," he said. "He is unreal. He knows a lot of things and can teach me a lot. I liked spending time with him. I liked seeing coach Thompson as well. It was crazy to see him there. He recruited me when he was at Alabama. It’s just wild."

"The players really like the coaching staff. It’s one of the best staffs in the country."

"Auburn has just got in touch with me," he stated. "They are coming to see me Thursday. I am going to Miami this weekend. I may go to Auburn now instead of Arkansas . I am going to wait to talk to their coaches. I want to get to know the coaches and get a vibe with them."

"Texas Tech came to see me today. I know some more coaches are coming to see me. I am just trying to see how everything goes. I got my mind kind of roaming right now."
