LEXINGTON, Ky. - After taking his fourth and final official visit, Willie Kemp isn't wasting any time in deliberating what college he will attend. The 6-foot-2 point guard from Bolivar, Tenn., is expected to decide between Memphis, the University of Kentucky, Arkansas and Tennessee sometime today. More..click hereI haven't heard anything yet but will try to find out. I'm reading now that it's been postponed. The kid has a lot of pressure being put on him right now and a lot from home folks I'd imagine. I'm curious what Young may have said to him, he visited when Kemp did. |

You know those people in the Volunteer State are pushing him to stay in state at UT or Memphis! Bubba, do you think its a good sign that he is trying to decide so soon after his visit to UK?

I wonder if we will ever know what the situation is, the young man is trying very hard to make the best choice and has the weight of the world on his shoulders. Imagine trying to decide between home town and UK. It's got to be a tough choice.

I am getting antsy about our recruits. I can't help it. I hear that Kemp is supposed to make a decision by noon today. I went to a Memphis site, and they are pretty sure that he's going to be a Tiger. They really don't want him to be a Vol. I'm sure it's just wishful thinking on their part. I guess we will know in a few hours.

It will be an interesting choice! I hope he chooses the top program of his choice, that would without a doubt be us!!

It's official now. Willie Kemp is a Memphis Tiger.
We still have other top recruits that have us ranked high on their list. Let's keep our fingers crossed.

Home is where the heart is and it seems we always lose to home or Dook and UNC. Calipari being there doesn't hurt.

I really thought we were going to get this guy, I'm down. I wouldn't be surprised if Young doesn't go there too.

According to Rivals.com-we are still high on Young's list and Wright's list too. Odds are that we will get somebody high on our list. I feel that location had a lot to do with Kemp's decision. I'm disappointed, but I understand. I wish him well. It seems that the UK fans are handling his decision with class and poise for the most part. But some UT fans are saying some nasty things about his decision. One actually said that at least he wasn't going to be wearing UK blue.  |

I wish him well too. This is going to be a good class for us, I think that is pretty obvious! I have read where Tubby is just as high or higher on the Jasper kid from Georgia who can play point or wing!
On a personal note, I'd much rather see him at Memphis then that stinky orange!
