Ken Torry has signed with Texas Southern. I suspect that program is in for an unpleasant surprise when he arrives.

White Station usually plays at Hoopfest in Marshall Co..KY. So I'm sure I'll get to see him play next year! I think they usually play Oak Hill.

I watched him play three games at the State tournament. If I was a college coach, I wouldnt want Ken Torry within 5 miles of my program.

I know this kid personally and his situation is very very bad but he manages. His mother is on crack living in Nashville. There is no father around. Ken lives from house to house. Usually coaches and asst. coaches try to help him out. This kid has basically been living on his own. There is no parental guidance. Football and Basketball is the main reason he isn't dead or in jail right now. We're talking about a kid who age 16 seen more bad things on the street than alot of us on Volnation will see in a lifetime. I know you may not believe me, but deep down he is a good kid. I pray that he will be able to go Texas Southern and become a productive student. He is far from dumb. The kid is crying out for attention. So please don't bash him, just pray for him !

New article on Rivals says,
It looks like Memphis is still the team to beat for Joe Jackson, he says, while Tennessee, Louisville, Ole Miss, Mississippi State and UMass are also in the picture.

You think we can do what seems to be impossible these days and pull this kid out of Memphis?

Good grief. I thought we'd have the inside track with him going to White Station.

Why? White Station doesnt have the same coach that they had when Bradshaw and Prince were there.

I didn't know they had a new coach. I just figured he'd be influenced by the paths of those who came before him.

Jackson said Memphis is his favorite and I don't think Ferokahn Hall is getting looked at by Memphis but if he can play more his senior year he oughta be ranked higher.

I would rather have Josh Selby. Joe Jackson lending to Memphis.

If he does not go to Memphis it would be a HUGE surprise. By the way, in his latest interview he takes a nice little jab at BG when he was at UK. It was not intentional. But it is funny. They asked him if he was considering UK before Cal took the job. He said he was not considering them because he was only going to a school with a good coach and they did not have a good coach until Cal took the job.
