Quinton Ross, who seems to be playing better and is healthy again lists 6 schools. Memphis being one of them.


By the end of the month a certain bigtime 6'9" F from 2011 will be a Tiger. This will be the first piece in what will become the number one class of 2011.

And it's not Ross, another athletic big.

Yep.

I guess I need to head to the Delta to watch some games

Keith, since you're doing your forecasting, can you use your Crystal ball and tell me which bar I should go to in Vail tonight?

I've been to Park City, can't help you in Vail.

I hope that 6'9'' F goes by the name of Nino Johnson! He is gonna be a killer. How many big guys are we gonna sign in 2011? What class are Stokes and JT3 in?

I take it you aren't going to/can't tell us who it is?

oh Lord.... Keith is gonna upset the orange folk again w/ these predictions of a # 1 class for Memphis!!


Keep up the good work buddy!

Nino will happen in time.

The particular player has told me, his dad and HS coach he wants to be a........TIGER. The staff knows. The family wants it handled properly.

Boom goes the dynamite!

Keith,

Just wondering:

- what class is Johnny O'Bryant in...is it 2011?
- how tall is Johnny O'Bryant...about 6'9"?
- how far is Tupelo from Johnny O'Bryant's home?

Not sayin', I'm just askin'...

That's ok by me then. Go Tigers!

At this time it's not Ross, O'Bryant or Nino. Sounds good, huh?

Sounds Wow.

Isn't Josh Pastner the best recruiter or what?

SHAMWOW!!

If I had a guess, it would have to be someone closer to the equator than Cleveland, MS.

I didn't post this as a "I know something you don't" thread, the Ross info came from a guy at Hoopscoop. Then texts start coming in from this kid about Memphis. If your a Tiger hoops fan it's an exciting time.

I am a fan, not a booster.

Crap!!

How good do you think the 2010 class will be?

Has Josh already surpassed X in recruiting and hasn't even played one doggone game?

Hold on- if you see a light in the northern sky tonight, it's because I've cut my suspenders and gone through the roof!!!

Can you say if it's a local kid or not?

Hell no. Shouldn't have said anything.

I'm going to Starbucks.

Do it Keith! Lol

When did they start selling vodka at Starbucks??

Oh and, thanks for the heads up Keith. It's ok if that's all you can say.

It's not Nash is it?

Is Michael Gilchrest 6'9"?

Actually Starbucks is going to start serving mixed drinks. I read it about a month ago. Most people will pay $7 for a mixed drink but many are like me and are reluctant to spend $4 on a cup of coffee. I'm like MissJ, I want a cup of MochaMarijuanaVodkaValiumLatte!!!

Quincy Miller or....Wayne Martin (I believe he has been offered by the UM staff)?

Let the name dropping commence!

http://scouthoops.scout.com/a.z?s=75&p=9...bb&yr=2011

The first player listed at 6'9 is O'Bryant, but Keith said it was not him.

The other players who are 6'9 are not closer to the equator, so I am going to assume the 6'9 is an approximation.

So I am going to guess its a superstar 6'9 Brazilian that no one knows about.

Antigua.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

If this player has told both you and his dad, my guess is Hunter Mickelson. 6-9 F from Jonesboro who's a Top 50-60 ranked skilled forward.

He would be part of a class that also includes A. Thomas, O'Bryant and others.

I don't have to know. Appreciate the info though...just like waiting for Christmas for me. GO TIGERS!

the recruiting trail is blazin' white hot. no sence in letting a little thing like a crawford commit cool it down any, eh keith. unbelieveable...

Does your crystal ball also show you if this will be before or after we are invited to the big east?

The guessing isn't going to do any good. KE's made it pretty clear that he's not giving up the name.

That was the first thought in my mind as well!

fun times

When Coach P took over, I did not envision all of this. I've said this many times, RC is one lucky SOB!

I'll just wait and see instead of speculating...thanks for the insight KE

I hope this is for real and some hacker didn't tap into KE's account.

back to lurking....

Mr. Easterwood I wouldn't say anything else. Geoff Calkins will probably write a column about you.

Rakeem Christmas? He's the only PF that's 6'9'' that I can think of that no one has mentioned.

I doubt mickelson gets out of arkansas, IMO......but id love to be wrong

you should make that part of your tag-line these days...

Theres a lot of options out there...none of them ive read so far would be less than another awesome commit!
