Most all big cities are dangerous for similar reasons, but I can testify that Memphis is indeed crime riddled. My sister has lived there for a few years. She's been robbed at gunpoint in her own driveway. Her mother in law had a home invasion last year in which she almost had a shootout but thankfully they ran when the laser started pointing. These are very nice neighborhoods, too. They all now have very large, trained German shepherds. I also have a friend who is now a police officer who's pickup was stolen from Memphis State campus. Protect yourselves at all times.
We have a steady middle with Kirkland and an excellent back up in Bituli. The outside will have Sapp a d McDowell. Sam is the unknown but it shouldn't be anything to worry about
Kirkland and Bituli go a long way towards convincing me. Since we play so much 4-2-5, we need another guy to step up. I think we could be good. Definitely not convinced, either.
