RE: I think there needs to be a Joey Dorsey Day.
Another memory from the game against Mich State, making eye contact with Texas fans after the game. The look on their faces said it all. They knew their season was going to end that weekend. They were not happy leaving the arena. Losing to us was inevitable.

Came to mind for me too.

I wouldn't let Joey date my daughter, lol. But he was an all out bully down low.....Senior year Joey that is. Freshman year he was a freshman. I'm trying to remember that for next year.

Yep, there were games his freshman year where he fouled out in 15 minutes or less.

Hands down my favorite Joey moment. Except for the pic I took with him when the team returned to campus after the national championship.

Dorsey was a guy you loved if he was on your team but really hated him if he wasn't.

I dunno. He came into the Forum with Rockets to play the Grizzlies, and most all of us in the meager crowd gave him a standing O and continued to cheer him on. lol

Joey had a great night! He won. lol

Classic when he told the David and Goliath story with himself cast in the part ofGoliath, and Oden as David.

5. Actually led the team in FG% in 2008; cause most shots where from point blank range. Actually begs the question hows it only 62%?
4. UAB Scrape; Joey tries to return to the court so Richard Hogans (Strength Coach and LB that played a key role in beating TN in 1996) had a WWE wrestling moment with him that I would pay to see again. Just so you know Hogans saved the season. If Joey makes it back, he is still in Jail for the number of UAB fans he swats.
3. The Michigan St. dunk, and then chest-bump-stare-down-whoop (with a smile) at Nieztel... incidentally; my memory is, the announcers said 'Nieztel' more than they said any other word before the game and up till halftime. After that they said WOW almost as often.
2. I'll never forget; in the Conf Tourney, Joey is on the bench and the end of the championship game and starts trying to get the crowed to do the wave... which we did, why not?
1. The Bradshaw 'shut your mouth' elbow... youtube it. A thing of beauty.



Oh man, that's an elbow any MMA practitioner would be proud of.

Nah he was late on the rotation and was still under the rim when cdr went airborne. There was no way he was blocking that.

RE: I think there needs to be a Joey Dorsey Day.
I seem to recall that he was interviewed in 2007 before the elite 8 game that we lost and he was crawling under a table during the interview or something completely ridiculous.

This thread is awesome. I am drinking my coffee and laughing out loud reliving those years and rooting for that team that was sooo much fun. Can't wait for season to start....

Yeah, Joey comparing himself to Goliath prior to playing Greg Oden...not his finest moment.

But of any former Tiger basketball player, I'd want Joey with me storming a beach.

I'm trying to find a picture of that magazine cover Joey was on as a cartoon character. I have the magazine but can't find it online.

Joey is one of my all time favorite Tigers, ever.

RE: I think there needs to be a Joey Dorsey Day.
Another great Joey moment; his presser after getting drafted by the Rockets. A reporter asks the owner to grade himself on the draft and before he could speak Joey announced it was an "A+". Which is a higher grade than Joey got in any class except Basketball.

I would expect my GPA to be the same as Joey's.

Does he ever come back to Memphis? I don't recall hearing about him.

Do a parade and set him up in the back of a pickup filled with singles. He makes it rain down Beale and finishes at the Plush.
