That is who I hope it is. I hope he is as good at shooting as the rumors and that he is signing.

It was from Esposito and he uses both.

For what it is worth (note the word "former")

JUCO combo-guard Chris Darrington's official visit with #Vols 'a bit overwhelming' http://tennessee.247sports.com/Article/J...e-52451717 … (VIP) via @GrantRamey

His Dad was also high on Tubby along with his coach! Would be VERY interesting to choose UTAY over Memphis.....Just show vids of Memphis guards such as Penny; D Rose; Tyreke and Will Thrill against ANY UTAY guards and search, "where are they NOW"? If you're a guard that can SCORE,,,,You're going to be seen here and compared to Gr8s!!!!!

Mike is 6'9" 270 muscular center.

His numbers aren't awe inspiring, but the guy is big. Won't get pushed around. We needed some bulk. Now let's sign Hardy or Darrington.

Parks averaged 9 pts & 4 rebs for Southwest MS CC. Did it in only 19 minutes per game. He finished the season w/ a 72% FG percentage.

Don't worry - you can always post it 2 days from now in the main forum like it just happened and you'll fit right in - haha.

I am underwhelmed. He averaged 8.9 points per game, 4 rebounds per game in 19.34 minutes playing on a JUCO 18-9 team.

I guess we'll see what he has to offer. We didn't even have a center most of the season last year so...

Yeah it going to be a collective effort from our frontcourt. He shoots 72% though so he makes the high percentage plays. Rebound and defend is what I mainly want out of him.

With the scholarships remaining, I was hoping for a big and another PG. We'll see what he can do here, but we did need some bulk. He was good enough for NM. They sucked last year, but usually have a good program there. If Hardy escapes UNLV without committing, I think he signs with us. He'll visit Thursday, in time for game 6 at the forum. Seeing that NBA arena packed.. We'll see..

I'm not sure I'd use the last scholarship unless you found a great player. We still don't have any 3 point shooters though..

Mike Parks‏ @mikeparksjr22 8m8 minutes ago
First of all I want to thank God, my mother and coaches! Im blessed to say I have committed to The University of Memphis #BAM

That's a large man.

Hope he can contribute some decent minutes.

You can't teach size.

72% means all he does is dunk. Andres Beidrins 'shot' around 60% so...

Look, if this guy is the 4th big behind Azab, Davenport, Enoh - then I'm fine with it. Seems clearly like a roll player.

Now go sign a shooter and a ball-handler and leave the last schollie open.
