I'm hearing Memphis will lose their football coach to Va Tech after they lose their basketball game to LaTech.

It is way too early for a statistical ranking to mean anything. I mean Kentucky #19? Just win baby.

I think this is a great measuring stick for our program. Of course the OSU win was big but beating a more regional team that we will recruit against, esp in MS. They have fallen from the top the past few seasons but are well known for being a top teir basketball school in this area. I think a lot of people in the area will see this win on par with OSU

No. 10, Jerimiah Martin, is a TECH signee who switched to Memphis when White left.

He is averaging 2 points a game in 15 minutes of play. I am anxious to see him play.

So far, Jean's numbers are much better. 9.8 per game while averaging 21 minutes with a much higher shooting percentage. I suspect the point guard coming in next year will at least be comparable to if not significantly better than Martin.

I am very excited about this game. We have to bring everything we have and more. They are a team on a mission, since already being upset on their court. We have to come in under control, but with an attitude. They will be ready for us, so there will be no sneaking up on them.
