Showcase Recap

Sorry I haven't gotten this up before now but I wanted to post a brief recap of the showcase we had on Saturday.

It was a pretty busy day for all of us since we had a couple of recruits in to see campus and meet our team to start the day and then the showcase in the afternoon. Overall I think everything went really well after we dealt with getting started late due to some uncontrollable circumstances. I feel like the two guys we had in enjoyed their time here and we are looking forward to watching them play this season and also to hearing their decision when that time comes. But on to the showcase.

The turnout was about what we expected with around 80 players here. We had a kid come all the way from Knoxville because he said he wanted to see how he matched up with Memphis players. Memphis has a great reputation in the basketball world and although he is only a freshman, he wanted his chance to prove he belongs. There were some very good players here but some that we were expecting did not show up which was disappointing but the competition was still great.

I hope everyone had a fun time at the showcase and we look forward to doing another one next season.
