From today's Tennessean in Nashville:

"Marshall County boys basketball Coach Jason Tigert said point guard Kedren Johnson has narrowed his choices to Alabama, Florida, Vanderbilt and Louisville. Johnson has crossed Memphis off his list, replacing the Tigers with Louisville."

I think Memphis quit agressively recruiting KJ a while back.

I think its even more funny that his final list of five school didnt include knoxville. Marshall County is in the center of the state.

Memphis has been out for Kedren Johnson for a month or so.

Coach Tigert is a good friend. He is a huge Tiger fan and an alumni of The U of M. I have never been so disapointed in him. He has failed as a human.

He must not have had fun at Pearl's house last year.

Yeah, I thought this was well known for a while now.

No sweat...good luck to him.

THolic- how can you realisticly send a PG here with JJ, AB, CC and JK all considering themselves a PG? Listen to the video's Chris, Jelan and Carmouch think they will see playing time this year as a PG; Out of the 5; atleast 3 of them have a chance at the NBA; I just don't see how a coach could put a PG in Memphis for atleast 3 years? What do you guys think?

Those are pretty strong words. A good friend has failed as a human?

Not that it matters but whose decision was it (ours, his or mutual)?

I agree, Tig sucks.

Tigert was my Government teacher in high school about ten years ago. Awesome dude.

Memphis is going to bring in a small class and narrowed their focus after evaluating this summer.

I seriously hope you're kidding. Tig's a friend of mine, and I would disagree with you wholeheartedly.

Ok. Maybe I was a little too strong. I didn't realize that the Notorious T.I.G was so popular around here. I will settle for just calliing him a waste of skin.

I'm sure I've called him worse!

I don't know the guy. You said he was a good friend. Then that he failed as a human. If you felt so strongly about this guy you should probably keep that to yourself.

Tigerholic, don't be so hard on yourself. I think that 'failed as a human' is pretty accurate...

As Nick23 so eloquently put it, Tig sucks...and I hope he never comes back to our fair city.
